Hi,
I've got a server which will be upgraded to my "castoff" parts which
support amd64. This machine has been running Freebsd since the 5.0
RC's, starting on a P2 233Mhz, upgraded incrementally for a few years
- a real testament to the stability of a FreeBSD install! What I've

For some reason, after running portupgrade databases/mysql51-server,
MySQL is brought down, but not restarted. It's not a huge issue, as I

Whatever you choose, make sure that the port maintainer is active with

I just upgraded a server from 7.2-RELEASE to 7.2-RELEASE-p2. I'm

Hi,
I recently upgraded a machine from FreeBSD 6.3 to 7.0. Everything is
