I'm not very familiar with administering FreeBSD (I am quite familiar with Solaris, Debian and Redhat) but I need to manage a FreeBSD server for a few days, and need some (emergency!) assistance :)
I've basically been handed a freshly installed FreeBSD box. This is -- # uname -a FreeBSD yyy.zzz 4.6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.6.1-RELEASE #0: Sun Jul 28 02:04:22 EDT 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/sys/compile/www i386 Now, 4.6.1-RELEASE isn't mentioned _anywhere_ on this page: <http://www.freebsd.org/releases/>. Is this a private build? Also, this is running some old packages, like apache-1.3.24_7 (which seems to be actually v1.3.26), and OpenSSH_2.9. But since apache has some open holes in versions prior to 1.3.27, would patches for these have been backported to the 1.2.24_7 package (like how Debian backports Potato bugixes)? Or is there a place I can get updated packages for 4.6.1-RELEASE? Finally, would you say this system is ready of being connected to the public internet, or should it be upgraded to something newer? Thanks in advance /Ranajit __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
