I think you may be confusing the purpose of these two utilities. portsnap is used to update your ports tree (/usr/ports directory). 'portsdb -U' will update your ports INDEX. Neither of these actually updates the software you have installed on your system; for that you can try portupgrade (ports-mgmt/portupgrade). -David -- [root_at_fbsd ~]# fortune Happiness is just an illusion, filled with sadness and confusion.Received on Thu Apr 05 2007 - 22:21:13 UTC
