Date: Sat, 29 Jul 95 23:30:31 GMT Organization: Rhodes University Lines: 17 Message-ID: <3vdrij$j7r@quagga.ru.ac.za> NNTP-Posting-Host: eagle.ru.ac.za X-Newsreader: News Xpress Version 1.0 Beta #3 Hi, I have a computer with FreeBSD 1.1 (I think, I can't remember the exact version) at my school and I would like to upgrade it to the latest version, but I do not want to make any mistakes because this computer is our gateway to the rest of the internet, and I can not take the risk of losing any of our routing, bootp, etc information. What I want to know is what files should I back up? If this is a part of the FAQ, then please do not bother to reply and I will read the FAQ when I next see it posted, and I am sorry for asking a "dumb" question. Thank you for you time. From Paul
