I need a few pointers.. Whats the best way to re-build with new fixes? make world comes to mind, but thats a big project to include a single fix. not to mention the large disk space requirements. I see a few other targets in the make file, but I'm not sure what to use.. I can imagine manually re-making and installing specific things (Like the recent cron fix), but I run into problem #2.... Does CVSup give me any sort of record on it's changes? or do I have to capture it's output from the -L switch? I've been reading the cvs man pages, but it looks like I don't really have enough of a CVS tree to do normal ops. Thanks for any guidance, Robert -- Robert Sexton - robert@kudra.com There's safety in numbers... Large prime numbers. - John Gilmore
