Hi all, I have been working with FreeBSD for about a month now, and it is my first foray into the BSD/UNIX/Linux world. I have a question about upgrading. I have tried several different ways to go about upgrading, and still can't seem to get the desired results. I started out with a 4.8 install from ftp.freebsd.org. My end goal is to build a FreeBSD firewall machine based on 4.8-STABLE. When I put RELENG_4_8 in my supfile, download/recompile/etc., uname -a still shows the version at 4.8-RELEASE. When I cvsup with RELENG_4 in my supfile, I got upgraded to 4.10-STABLE. Is there any way to upgrade just to 4.8-STABLE? Am I going about this the wrong way? Thank you all so much, Brian Smith Administrative Specialist/Logistics Research (304)466-1065 ext. 207 smitho@mantech-wva.com
