Thanks Glen but doing that in a remote computer is
that computer trashed (fixing it would cost almost as much
as renting a new one). Anyway in the forums somebody gave me
this:
Doing what in a remote machine is asking for trouble? SSH
will not be affected.
Installing a new kernel remotely. If the new one does not boots properly then I'm in trouble. Serious trouble. (I do not have local access to the console, all the time over ssh and if i reboot it over webmin just in case i make a mistake reconfiguring ssh)
ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/i386/7.0-RELEASE/packages/All
old. Let's see if i can work out to fix that. Problem is
The problem now is that the package I need is way too
it uses perl and perl is used by another package the hosting
company installed that depends on it. And that I really have
0 experience with it so reinstalling a new one means
downtime. I'll try to modify dkimproxy and see what
happens. So far the newer version installed with warnings
but doesn't even start.
If you need "stability" (production ready), you
(as the maintainer of
the machine) are obligated to some extent to keep it both,
up to date
and "stable".
Yes and keep it safe from all those attacks i receive 24/7. Problem is upgrade is not an option for me. But that's ok, i removed old perl, old webmin, installed new perl, new webmin, new dkimproxy. Everything went ok since i carefully followed all the steps i simulated in a virtual machine here. And.. Uf. Didn't had to even reboot that one.
Note: I use "stable" in quotes to not be
confused with -STABLE.
AFAIK, 7.0-REL was EOL'd (or is scheduled to be).
Ports are generally
guaranteed to be installable on the latest -RELEASE version
(in this
case, 7.1-RELEASE).
Now you know it. At least perl from 7-stable, webmin and dkimproxy-1.1 on top of it works just fine on top of the 7.0 release. I tested it, and works great to the point that amazes me.
Anything prior to that is not a
guarantee.
Packages (as I am sure you are aware) are only built one
time -- when
X.X-RELEASE is released. There is no guarantee on
compatibility after
that point.
