You'll need to cvsup the source (for the entire OS, not just the kernel) then 'make world'. For more information on this, take a look at: o http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/stable.html o http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/makeworld.html o http://www.freebsddiary.org/current.html (it deals with -STABLE even though it's named current.html) o http://www.freebsdzine.org/attic/199907/cvsup.txt Those should help answer some of your questions. As for ppp and pppd, they're part of the base distribution, so you won't need to add any packages or ports to get them. - jim -- - jim mock - walnut creek cdrom/freebsd test labs - jim@luna.cdrom.com - - phone: 1.925.691.2800 x.3814 - fax: 1.925.674.0821 - jim@FreeBSD.org - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
