I have got a bsdi 2.1 system that is sorely in need of some patches
(sendmail and some others) and I am looking for some patching advise.
Does bsdi have recommended cluster patches like in the sun solaris
environment?  Is there anything in specific I need to back up before
I apply patches (yes, I do have a full system backup)??

TIA for any experience that anyone would care to share.
