When I used mergemaster to update /etc, there were a number of files being merged into /etc that are older revisions than those I had in 8.1. You can check this for example by comparing the revision numbers at the following URLS. Compare say syslog.conf (there are a whole list of other files that are out of date). In 8.1 it has a revision of 1.30.2.1.4.1 - 5 months old In 8.X it has a revision of 1.30.2.1 - 16 months old http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/?only_with_tag=RELENG_8_1 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/?only_with_tag=RELENG_8 Shouldn't RELENG_8 have all the changes that went into RELENG_8_1 as FreeBSD moves to 8.2? Kind regards, Geoff
