Hi, This is the only FreeBSD list I receive, so I need to ask three questions. I just built a new webserver Thursday last, from boot.flp/2.2.7, only to find 3.0 released on Friday. (1) Do I need / how do I get a "boot.flp" that will build 3.0 instead of 2.2.7, so I can nuke the Thursday build and start over?? (2) Do I WANT to move to 3.0 -- is it stable/tested enough for the "brain trust" to feel comfortable with it for a low/moderate traffic webserver ?? (3) I'm rebuilding THIS server because I was nuked thru the mail/buffer overflow hack, but I'm reading that it isn't just popper... that several pop3 and imap servers will break, and that only sendmail 8.9.1 with the 1a patch will stop it.... CAN I ADD the sendmail 8.9.1 without breaking something else ??? are there dependencies in 8.9.1 that either 2.2.7 or 3.0 won't support ????
