Hi,
I am using mozilla 1.4 and Java 1.3.1 quite happily here (both compiled
from the ports collection).
If you don't want to use the ports but pre-compiled binaries, then you
should not mix Linux and FreeBSD binaries and those from different gcc
versions.

I just noticed that the patches I used were for phpnuke 6.0, and it
seems that there are no fixes for v. 6.9 available.
The above patch is no longer online, so please consider the
vulnerability _NOT_ to be fixed.
Sorry for the noise!

Hi,
although your question has already been answered: I have attached a

code, I know, but it creates nice patches of the from

Simply remember to copy the source files to filename.orig before

my @files = `find . -name "*.orig"`;

The output of something like
pkg_info | grep gaim
is usually more helpful, since it also shows the version of the FreeBSD
port you are using.
