Dear FreeBSD:ers, I am happy to use FreeBSD for web, mail and applications serving. But when I come to the question about how to upgrade to a newer FreeBSD version, I really could need your expertise!
We have two FreeBSD 4.5 boxes. Both boxes have been installed with FreeBSD 4.5 from CD, and then tweaked with reconfigured kernels and a few applications installed, mainly qmail (replacing sendmail), mod-php, mysql, pico and a few more. Both boxes have around 25 users each. Both boxes have tweaked settings in /etc/rc.conf and some other /etc/-files. My question is, if anyone can give a hint on how to upgrade safely from FreeBSD 4.5 to FreeBSD 5.0...? If we download FreeBSD 5.0 and install it on our FreeBSD 4.5 boxes, what will we have to do? Is there risk that all settings, contents and installed applications will be erased? Very thankful for all help on this matter...! -- Regards, Smartnet Sverige AB Johannes Angeldorff To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
