dear sir,
I copy some content from http://security.freebsd.org/,
* FreeBSD-SA-07:05.libarchive.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:04.file.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:03.ipv6.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:02.bind.asc
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE released.
* FreeBSD-SA-07:01.jail.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:26.gtar.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:25.kmem.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:24.libarchive.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:22.openssh.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:23.openssl.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:21.gzip.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:20.bind.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:19.openssl.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:18.ppp.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:17.sendmail.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:16.smbfs.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:15.ypserv.asc
FreeBSD 5.5-RELEASE released.
Is that mean if I use 5.5-release I need to patch all the patches
above and
if I use 6.2-release I only need to patch SA-07:05 to SA-07:02 ?
Is that right?
I also learned from http://security.freebsd.org/patches
there two kinds of pathes, SA serial and EN serial, such as
SA-07:05/ 12-Jul-2007 15:08 -
SA-07:04/ 23-May-2007 16:18 -
SA-07:03/ 26-Apr-2007 23:46 -
EN-07:05/ 15-Mar-2007 08:10 -
EN-07:04/ 28-Feb-2007 18:41 -
EN-07:03/ 28-Feb-2007 18:41 -
EN-07:02/ 28-Feb-2007 18:40 -
EN-07:01/ 14-Feb-2007 22:33 -
SA-07:02/ 09-Feb-2007 20:37 -
SA-07:01/ 11-Jan-2007 18:36 -
what are the differences between them?
Thanks for reply.
