You should probably check out RELENG_4_3, which is 4.3 with all of fixes that were ever applied to it. But, of course, 4.3 is no longer supported, and there are probably known vulnerabilities, so it's probably not a good idea to actually run FreeBSD 4.3. --=20 Adam Fabian (afabian@austin.rr.com) --ReaqsoxgOBHFXBhH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBo/Wi/9HEzeJgMxwRAuszAJ98QemeyQdWhzkNTfbM82Sj9m6pgQCfa5cm M4YwQtaZZJP+xTFMjxrZQMI= =pdSP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ReaqsoxgOBHFXBhH--
