I have a server that I've upgraded over the last year from FreeBSD 4.1 Release to 4.5 Stable. I printed the output from pkg_info and found that I don't use most of the applications. I would like to pkg_delete all of the packages and reinstall only the ones I'm really using from the updated ports. If I pkg_delete them all, I should be left with a functional core system....right? Or are certain packages a part of the base system? Thanks, Andrew Gould __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
