Hi. I'm upgrading Apache from 1.3.24 to 1.3.26 as per the security advisory. Lots of packages have apache as a dependency, so I don't really want to pkg_delete -f it. So, what I'm supposed to do is copy my httpd.conf to a safe place, cd into /usr/ports/www/apache13/ and make install, then copy the httpd.conf back? Is there any reason not to just make the port and copy the compiled httpd binary from where it is in the work tree over /usr/local/sbin/httpd? This is what I've done and it "seems to work". Am I setting myself up for any problems by doing this instead? TIA, Bill. -- W.
