Running -current is not a good idea. It is a development stream not intended for general usage. It is not guaranteed to work properly at any given time, and features are not necessarily complete. The upgrade path from 4.X to 5.0 will be well planned by the FreeBSD team, so it would be in your best interests to stick with the stable stream. -- Steve Tremblett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
