Thanks for the link Kris.  I had a bit of a hunt around, looking for a 4.6
release, but none to be found :-(

I have just finished trying a ports upgrade (current), but ran out of HD
space! I guess, that's one nice reason to have a packages solution!

Cheers,

Paul

See http://mirrorlist.freebsd.org/FBSDsites.php

Note that old versions of openssl have multiple security
vulnerabilities, so it's not advisable to use them.
