Thanks Kris, J.D., I found the same build problems on 6_0. I've subscribed to -current and -stable as I want to better track these issues...which brings me to my next question: In production (at an ISP), what is the best to follow...RELENGX_X or RELENG_X? I have 4.x, 5.x boxes in production, and this 6.x box is being prepared for the same. Tks :) Steve > > > > > > > > -- > J.D.
