Hi,
I am using freebsd-update to make sure my systems are kept up to date, but I
have one box (FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE) that has a custom kernel and the kernel
dosn't get updated, just the modules.
I read the handbook on cvsuping the source and it wasn't quite clear to me
which supfile I should use. I wan't to cvsup the source that would have the
security fixes, their are 2 supfiles in /usr/share/examples/cvsup which one
would I use (if either)?
standard-supfile
stable-supfile

I don't know that there's much difference. A diff(1) on the
two files on my 5.4 system is just a few lines, mostly comments
and the ID tag.
What's important is which release tag you use. A conservative
tag for your situation would be RELENG_4_11. Only slightly less
conservative would be RELENG_4, and I'm not sure but what the
two are close to lockstepped as the developers are spending most
of their time on 6.X and 5.X. Grab src-all and your handbook and
build world to your heart's content!
