You don't have the source tree installed. Obviously, you'll need to do that as a prerequisite for compiling the 5.2 sources. Kris pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
5.x stable cvsup
Hi, I got a question, my dedicated server provider has installed 5.1-Release and refuses to install 4.7 for me. Can I recompile to 5.1-STABLE using the same method as 4.7 and same 4.x-stable-supfile and kernel config file. OR do i need to use a 5,x-stable method? any idea any url i can find help in compiling 5.1-REL to STABLE. Thanks!

I wouldn't want one on my local network. I think this statement is wrong. One can cvsup 4.3 - 4.9 with RELENG_4_3 and up. Many other users still run 3.*, but most likely they do not have local user accounts and do one job very well. I do not know if all kernel security updates go into 3.* due to the amount of work involved. The services though, anyone can do that themselves. Apache has a bug, well grab the newest source and go to town. If someone is going around the internet abusing a bug in a current ftpd daemon or sshd daemon, your last worry will be a signal handling bug in the kernel. I am not promoting running older FBSD releases, just know many people do with great success. m OR do i need to use a 5,x-stable method? any idea any url i can find help in compiling 5.1-REL to STABLE.
