FreeBSD 2.1.7 is now available in:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.1.7-RELEASE

And shortly from its various mirror sites, a list of which may be obtained from: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html

This is a security release to FreeBSD 2.1.6, fixing at least several security holes and addressing a number of outstanding problem reports in that release.

FreeBSD 2.1.7 will also be available on CDROM from Walnut Creek CDROM, hopefully shipping within the next 3-4 weeks. If you are a customer of Walnut Creek CDROM and you purchased the 2.1.6 release (either by subscription or by retail) then you are also entitled to a free upgrade. All you need to do is send mail to orders@cdrom.com or call 1-800 786-9907 / +1 510 674-0783 Intl, indicate that you would like the free 2.1.7 upgrade and provide your name and address information so that a replacement can be shipped. Walnut Creek CDROM customers will also receive a letter explaining these details.

Those puzzled by the near-simultaneous release of 2.1.7 and 2.2 should also look at http://www.freebsd.org/branch.html for the reasons behind this release schedule. CDROM subscription customers should see this page for information on Walnut Creek CDROM's plans for these releases.

If you are a commercial user of FreeBSD who would like to take advantage of recent bug fixes without making the jump to our more ambitious 2.2 release (or delay that jump until 2.2 has had more time to mature), or if you're simply looking for the lowest-impact upgrade from 2.1.5, then 2.1.7-RELEASE is for you.

                                  RELEASE NOTES
                              FreeBSD 2.1.7 RELEASE
 
 0. What is this release?
 ------------------------
 FreeBSD 2.1.7R is the follow-on release to 2.1.6R and focuses primarily
 on fixing bugs and closing security holes, the most notable being the
 setlocale() bug (see ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/CERT) in 2.1.6R.
 
 For more information on our bleeding-edge development, please see
 http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current.html.
 
 0. What's New since 2.1.6-RELEASE?
 ----------------------------------
 Since the setlocale() security hole forced us to do another release
 along the 2.1-STABLE branch, we focused on pulling in a lot of
 additional bug fixes and security enhancements as well, taking
 also some time to upgrade sysinstall to deal with the MSDOSFS
-installation bugs which have hosed so many people & to upgrade
+installation bugs which have hosed so many people & to upgrade
 a few selected utilities.  Aside from these, there are few functional
 changes in 2.1.7R.
 
 
 1. What's New since 2.1.0-RELEASE?
 ----------------------------------
 Quite a few things have changed since the last major release
 of FreeBSD.  To make it easier to identify specific changes,
 we've broken them into several major categories:
 
 
 Device Drivers:
 ---------------
 Support for the Adaptec AIC7850 on-board SCSI adapter.
 
 Support for Specialix SI and XIO serial cards.
 
 Support for the Stallion EasyIO, EasyConnection 8/32 and
 EasyConnection 8/64, as well as the older Onboard and Brumby serial
 cards.
 
 Support for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B PCI ethernet card.
 
 Support for the 3COM 3C590 and 3C595 ethernet cards.
 
 Real PCI Buslogic support (new driver and probing order).
 
 Support for the ARNET (now Digiboard) Sync 570i high-speed serial card.
 
 Better support for the Matrox Meteor frame grabber card.
 
 Support for the Connectix Quickcam.
 
 Kernel features:
 ----------------
 Various VM system enhancements and more than a few bugs fixed.
 
 A concatenated disk driver for simple types of RAID applications.
 See the man page for ccd(4) for more information.
 
 Real PCI bus probing (before ISA) and support for various PCI bridges.
 
 The Linux emulation is now good enough to run the Linux version of
 Netscape, with JAVA support (as well as a number of other Linux
 utilities).
 
 
 
 Userland code updates:
 ----------------------
 
 The system installation tool has been revamped with slightly different
 menu behavior and a number of bugs have been fixed.  It's hoped that
 this installation will be more intuitive for new users than previous
 ones (feedback welcomed, of course) as well as more useful in the
 post-install scenario (I know, I keep saying this :-).
 
 Many improvements to the NIS code.
 
 The ncftp program is no longer part of the default system - it has been
 replaced by a library (/usr/src/lib/libftpio) and a more powerful program
 which uses it called ``fetch'' (/usr/src/usr.bin/fetch).  You may find
 ncftp as part of the ports collection (in /usr/ports/net/ncftp) if you
 still wish to use it, though fetch is slightly more capable in that
 it can fetch from both FTP and HTTP servers (ftp://... or http://... URLs).
 See the man page for more details.
 
 
 2. Technical overview
 ---------------------
 
 FreeBSD is a freely available, full source 4.4 BSD Lite based release
 for Intel i386/i486/Pentium (or compatible) based PC's.  It is based
 primarily on software from U.C. Berkeley's CSRG group, with some
 enhancements from NetBSD, 386BSD, and the Free Software Foundation.
 
 Since our release of FreeBSD 2.0 over a year ago, the performance,
 feature set and stability of FreeBSD has improved dramatically.  The
 largest change is a revamped VM system with a merged VM/file buffer
 cache that not only increases performance but reduces FreeBSD's memory
 footprint, making a 5MB configuration a more acceptable minimum.
 Other enhancements include full NIS client and server support,
 transaction TCP support, dial-on-demand PPP, an improved SCSI
 subsystem, early ISDN support, support for FDDI and Fast Ethernet
 (100Mbit) adapters, improved support for the Adaptec 2940 (WIDE and
 narrow) and 3940 SCSI adaptors along with many hundreds of bug fixes.
 
 We've taken the comments and suggestions of many of our users to
 heart and have attempted to provide what we hope is a more sane and
 easily understood installation process.  Your feedback on this
 (constantly evolving) process is especially welcome!
 
 In addition to the base distributions, FreeBSD offers a new ported
 software collection with over 390 commonly sought-after programs.  The
 list of ports ranges from http (WWW) servers, to games, languages,
 editors and almost everything in between.  The entire ports collection
 requires only 10MB of storage, all ports being expressed as "deltas"
 to their original sources.  This makes it much easier for us to update
 ports and greatly reduces the disk space demands made by the ports
 collection.  To compile a port, you simply change to the directory of
 the program you wish to install, type make and let the system do the
 rest.  The full original distribution for each port you build is
 retrieved dynamically off of CDROM or a local ftp site, so you need
 only enough disk space to build the ports you want.  (Almost) every
 port is also provided as a pre-compiled "package" which can be
 installed with a simple command (pkg_add).  See also the new Packages
 option in the Configuration menu for an especially convenient interface
 to the package collection.
 
 
 A number of additional documents which you may find helpful in the
 process of installing and using FreeBSD may now also be found in the
 /usr/share/doc directory.  You may view the manuals with any HTML
 capable browser by saying:
 
   To read the handbook:
-       file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html
+      <browser> file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html
 
   To read the FAQ:
-       file:/usr/share/doc/FAQ/freebsd-faq.html
+      <browser> file:/usr/share/doc/FAQ/freebsd-faq.html
 
 You can also visit the master (and most frequently updated) copies at
 http://www.freebsd.org.
 
 The core of FreeBSD does not contain DES code which would inhibit its
 being exported outside the United States.  There is an add-on package
 to the core distribution, for use only in the United States, that
 contains the programs that normally use DES.  The auxiliary packages
 provided separately can be used by anyone.  A freely (from outside the
 U.S.) exportable distribution of DES for our non-U.S. users also
 exists at ftp://ftp.internat.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD.
 
 If password security for FreeBSD is all you need and you have no
 requirement for copying encrypted passwords from different hosts
 (Suns, DEC machines, etc) into FreeBSD password entries, then
 FreeBSD's MD5 based security may be all you require!  We feel that our
 default security model is more than a match for DES, and without any
 messy export issues to deal with.  If you're outside (or even inside)
 the U.S., give it a try!  This snapshot also includes support for
 mixed password files - either DES or MD5 passwords will be accepted,
 making it easier to transition from one scheme to the other.
 
 
 3. Supported Configurations
 ---------------------------
 
 FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA and PCI bus
 based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
 386sx is not recommended).  Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
 configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
 also provided.
 
 What follows is a list of all disk controllers and ethernet cards
 currently known to work with FreeBSD.  Other configurations may also
 work, but we have simply not received any confirmation of this.
 
 
 3.1. Disk Controllers
 ---------------------
 
 WD1003 (any generic MFM/RLL)
 WD1007 (any generic IDE/ESDI)
 IDE
 ATA
 
 Adaptec 152x series ISA SCSI controllers

 controllers.
 Adaptec AIC-6260 and AIC-6360 based boards, which includes
 Adaptec AIC7850 on-board SCSI controllers.
 the AHA-152x and SoundBlaster SCSI cards.
 
 ** Note: You cannot boot from the SoundBlaster cards as they have no
    on-board BIOS, such being necessary for mapping the boot device into the
    system BIOS I/O vectors.  They're perfectly usable for external tapes,
    CDROMs, etc, however.  The same goes for any other AIC-6x60 based card
    without a boot ROM.  Some systems DO have a boot ROM, which is generally
    indicated by some sort of message when the system is first powered up
    or reset, and in such cases you *will* also be able to boot from them.
    Check your system/board documentation for more details.

 4. Obtaining FreeBSD
 --------------------
 
 You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
 
 4.1. FTP/Mail
 
 You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
 `ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
 
 For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
 MIRROR.SITES.  Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
 networking terms) to you.  Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
 Contact admin@freebsd.org for more details if you'd like to become an
 official mirror site.
 
 If you do not have access to the internet and electronic mail is your
 only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
 `ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
 to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
 Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
 megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
 LAST resort!
 
 
 4.2. CDROM
 
 FreeBSD 2.1-RELEASE and these 2.2 SNAPSHOT CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
 
         Walnut Creek CDROM
         4041 Pike Lane, Suite D
         Concord CA  94520
         1-800-786-9907, +1-510-674-0783, +1-510-674-0821 (fax)
 
 Or via the internet from orders@cdrom.com or http://www.cdrom.com.
 Their current catalog can be obtained via ftp as:
         ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/cdrom/catalog.
 
 Cost per -RELEASE CD is $39.95 or $24.95 with a FreeBSD subscription.
 FreeBSD 2.2-SNAP CDs are $29.95 or $14.95 with a FreeBSD-SNAP subscription
 (-RELEASE and -SNAP subscriptions are entirely seperate).  With a
 subscription, you will automatically receive updates as they are released.
 Your credit card will be billed when each disk is shipped and you may cancel
 your subscription at any time without further obligation.
 
 Walnut Creek CDROM also sells a full line of FreeBSD related
 merchandise such as T-shirts ($14.95, available in "child", Large and
 XL sizes), coffee mugs ($9.95), tattoos ($0.25 each) and posters
 ($3.00).
 
 Shipping (per order not per disc) is $5 in the US, Canada or Mexico
 and $9.00 overseas.  They accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American
 Express or checks in U.S. Dollars and ship COD within the United
 States.  California residents please add 8.25% sales tax.
 
 Should you be dissatisfied for any reason, the CD comes with an
 unconditional return policy.
 
 
 Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code
 -------------------------------------------------------
 
 Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
 valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
 (preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
 
 The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
 internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command.  Bug reports
 will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
 be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
 as possible.  Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
 in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
 and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
 watch out for.
 
 If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
 submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
 
                 bugs@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Otherwise, for any questions or suggestions, please send mail to:
 
                 questions@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
 extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
 enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves!  To
 contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
 mail to:
 
                 hackers@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
 amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
 are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
 may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
 
                 announce@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 All but the freebsd-bugs groups can be freely joined by anyone wishing
 to do so.  Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
 `help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message.  This
 will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
 archives, etc.  There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
 special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
 and ask about them!
 
 
 6. Acknowledgements
 -------------------
 
 FreeBSD represents the cumulative work of many dozens, if not
 hundreds, of individuals from around the world who have worked very
 hard to bring you this release.  It would be very difficult, if not
 impossible, to enumerate everyone who's contributed to FreeBSD, but
 nonetheless we shall try (in alphabetical order, of course). If you've
 contributed something substantive to us and your name is not mentioned
 here, please be assured that its omission is entirely accidental.

FreeBSD 2.1.7 is now available in:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.1.7-RELEASE

And shortly from its various mirror sites, a list of which may be obtained from: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html

This is a security release to FreeBSD 2.1.6, fixing at least several security holes and addressing a number of outstanding problem reports in that release.

FreeBSD 2.1.7 will also be available on CDROM from Walnut Creek CDROM, hopefully shipping within the next 3-4 weeks. If you are a customer of Walnut Creek CDROM and you purchased the 2.1.6 release (either by subscription or by retail) then you are also entitled to a free upgrade. All you need to do is send mail to orders@cdrom.com or call 1-800 786-9907 / +1 510 674-0783 Intl, indicate that you would like the free 2.1.7 upgrade and provide your name and address information so that a replacement can be shipped. Walnut Creek CDROM customers will also receive a letter explaining these details.

Those puzzled by the near-simultaneous release of 2.1.7 and 2.2 should also look at http://www.freebsd.org/branch.html for the reasons behind this release schedule. CDROM subscription customers should see this page for information on Walnut Creek CDROM's plans for these releases.

If you are a commercial user of FreeBSD who would like to take advantage of recent bug fixes without making the jump to our more ambitious 2.2 release (or delay that jump until 2.2 has had more time to mature), or if you're simply looking for the lowest-impact upgrade from 2.1.5, then 2.1.7-RELEASE is for you.

                                  RELEASE NOTES
                              FreeBSD 2.1.7 RELEASE
 
 0. What is this release?
 ------------------------
 FreeBSD 2.1.7R is the follow-on release to 2.1.6R and focuses primarily
 on fixing bugs and closing security holes, the most notable being the
 setlocale() bug (see ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/CERT) in 2.1.6R.
 
 For more information on our bleeding-edge development, please see
 http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current.html.
 
 0. What's New since 2.1.6-RELEASE?
 ----------------------------------
 Since the setlocale() security hole forced us to do another release
 along the 2.1-STABLE branch, we focused on pulling in a lot of
 additional bug fixes and security enhancements as well, taking
 also some time to upgrade sysinstall to deal with the MSDOSFS
-installation bugs which have hosed so many people & to upgrade
+installation bugs which have hosed so many people & to upgrade
 a few selected utilities.  Aside from these, there are few functional
 changes in 2.1.7R.
 
 
 1. What's New since 2.1.0-RELEASE?
 ----------------------------------
 Quite a few things have changed since the last major release
 of FreeBSD.  To make it easier to identify specific changes,
 we've broken them into several major categories:
 
 
 Device Drivers:
 ---------------
 Support for the Adaptec AIC7850 on-board SCSI adapter.
 
 Support for Specialix SI and XIO serial cards.
 
 Support for the Stallion EasyIO, EasyConnection 8/32 and
 EasyConnection 8/64, as well as the older Onboard and Brumby serial
 cards.
 
 Support for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B PCI ethernet card.
 
 Support for the 3COM 3C590 and 3C595 ethernet cards.
 
 Real PCI Buslogic support (new driver and probing order).
 
 Support for the ARNET (now Digiboard) Sync 570i high-speed serial card.
 
 Better support for the Matrox Meteor frame grabber card.
 
 Support for the Connectix Quickcam.
 
 Kernel features:
 ----------------
 Various VM system enhancements and more than a few bugs fixed.
 
 A concatenated disk driver for simple types of RAID applications.
 See the man page for ccd(4) for more information.
 
 Real PCI bus probing (before ISA) and support for various PCI bridges.
 
 The Linux emulation is now good enough to run the Linux version of
 Netscape, with JAVA support (as well as a number of other Linux
 utilities).
 
 
 
 Userland code updates:
 ----------------------
 
 The system installation tool has been revamped with slightly different
 menu behavior and a number of bugs have been fixed.  It's hoped that
 this installation will be more intuitive for new users than previous
 ones (feedback welcomed, of course) as well as more useful in the
 post-install scenario (I know, I keep saying this :-).
 
 Many improvements to the NIS code.
 
 The ncftp program is no longer part of the default system - it has been
 replaced by a library (/usr/src/lib/libftpio) and a more powerful program
 which uses it called ``fetch'' (/usr/src/usr.bin/fetch).  You may find
 ncftp as part of the ports collection (in /usr/ports/net/ncftp) if you
 still wish to use it, though fetch is slightly more capable in that
 it can fetch from both FTP and HTTP servers (ftp://... or http://... URLs).
 See the man page for more details.
 
 
 2. Technical overview
 ---------------------
 
 FreeBSD is a freely available, full source 4.4 BSD Lite based release
 for Intel i386/i486/Pentium (or compatible) based PC's.  It is based
 primarily on software from U.C. Berkeley's CSRG group, with some
 enhancements from NetBSD, 386BSD, and the Free Software Foundation.
 
 Since our release of FreeBSD 2.0 over a year ago, the performance,
 feature set and stability of FreeBSD has improved dramatically.  The
 largest change is a revamped VM system with a merged VM/file buffer
 cache that not only increases performance but reduces FreeBSD's memory
 footprint, making a 5MB configuration a more acceptable minimum.
 Other enhancements include full NIS client and server support,
 transaction TCP support, dial-on-demand PPP, an improved SCSI
 subsystem, early ISDN support, support for FDDI and Fast Ethernet
 (100Mbit) adapters, improved support for the Adaptec 2940 (WIDE and
 narrow) and 3940 SCSI adaptors along with many hundreds of bug fixes.
 
 We've taken the comments and suggestions of many of our users to
 heart and have attempted to provide what we hope is a more sane and
 easily understood installation process.  Your feedback on this
 (constantly evolving) process is especially welcome!
 
 In addition to the base distributions, FreeBSD offers a new ported
 software collection with over 390 commonly sought-after programs.  The
 list of ports ranges from http (WWW) servers, to games, languages,
 editors and almost everything in between.  The entire ports collection
 requires only 10MB of storage, all ports being expressed as "deltas"
 to their original sources.  This makes it much easier for us to update
 ports and greatly reduces the disk space demands made by the ports
 collection.  To compile a port, you simply change to the directory of
 the program you wish to install, type make and let the system do the
 rest.  The full original distribution for each port you build is
 retrieved dynamically off of CDROM or a local ftp site, so you need
 only enough disk space to build the ports you want.  (Almost) every
 port is also provided as a pre-compiled "package" which can be
 installed with a simple command (pkg_add).  See also the new Packages
 option in the Configuration menu for an especially convenient interface
 to the package collection.
 
 
 A number of additional documents which you may find helpful in the
 process of installing and using FreeBSD may now also be found in the
 /usr/share/doc directory.  You may view the manuals with any HTML
 capable browser by saying:
 
   To read the handbook:
-       file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html
+      <browser> file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html
 
   To read the FAQ:
-       file:/usr/share/doc/FAQ/freebsd-faq.html
+      <browser> file:/usr/share/doc/FAQ/freebsd-faq.html
 
 You can also visit the master (and most frequently updated) copies at
 http://www.freebsd.org.
 
 The core of FreeBSD does not contain DES code which would inhibit its
 being exported outside the United States.  There is an add-on package
 to the core distribution, for use only in the United States, that
 contains the programs that normally use DES.  The auxiliary packages
 provided separately can be used by anyone.  A freely (from outside the
 U.S.) exportable distribution of DES for our non-U.S. users also
 exists at ftp://ftp.internat.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD.
 
 If password security for FreeBSD is all you need and you have no
 requirement for copying encrypted passwords from different hosts
 (Suns, DEC machines, etc) into FreeBSD password entries, then
 FreeBSD's MD5 based security may be all you require!  We feel that our
 default security model is more than a match for DES, and without any
 messy export issues to deal with.  If you're outside (or even inside)
 the U.S., give it a try!  This snapshot also includes support for
 mixed password files - either DES or MD5 passwords will be accepted,
 making it easier to transition from one scheme to the other.
 
 
 3. Supported Configurations
 ---------------------------
 
 FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA and PCI bus
 based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
 386sx is not recommended).  Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
 configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
 also provided.
 
 What follows is a list of all disk controllers and ethernet cards
 currently known to work with FreeBSD.  Other configurations may also
 work, but we have simply not received any confirmation of this.
 
 
 3.1. Disk Controllers
 ---------------------
 
 WD1003 (any generic MFM/RLL)
 WD1007 (any generic IDE/ESDI)
 IDE
 ATA
 
 Adaptec 152x series ISA SCSI controllers

 controllers.
 Adaptec AIC-6260 and AIC-6360 based boards, which includes
 Adaptec AIC7850 on-board SCSI controllers.
 the AHA-152x and SoundBlaster SCSI cards.
 
 ** Note: You cannot boot from the SoundBlaster cards as they have no
    on-board BIOS, such being necessary for mapping the boot device into the
    system BIOS I/O vectors.  They're perfectly usable for external tapes,
    CDROMs, etc, however.  The same goes for any other AIC-6x60 based card
    without a boot ROM.  Some systems DO have a boot ROM, which is generally
    indicated by some sort of message when the system is first powered up
    or reset, and in such cases you *will* also be able to boot from them.
    Check your system/board documentation for more details.

 4. Obtaining FreeBSD
 --------------------
 
 You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
 
 4.1. FTP/Mail
 
 You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
 `ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
 
 For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
 MIRROR.SITES.  Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
 networking terms) to you.  Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
 Contact admin@freebsd.org for more details if you'd like to become an
 official mirror site.
 
 If you do not have access to the internet and electronic mail is your
 only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
 `ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
 to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
 Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
 megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
 LAST resort!
 
 
 4.2. CDROM
 
 FreeBSD 2.1-RELEASE and these 2.2 SNAPSHOT CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
 
         Walnut Creek CDROM
         4041 Pike Lane, Suite D
         Concord CA  94520
         1-800-786-9907, +1-510-674-0783, +1-510-674-0821 (fax)
 
 Or via the internet from orders@cdrom.com or http://www.cdrom.com.
 Their current catalog can be obtained via ftp as:
         ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/cdrom/catalog.
 
 Cost per -RELEASE CD is $39.95 or $24.95 with a FreeBSD subscription.
 FreeBSD 2.2-SNAP CDs are $29.95 or $14.95 with a FreeBSD-SNAP subscription
 (-RELEASE and -SNAP subscriptions are entirely seperate).  With a
 subscription, you will automatically receive updates as they are released.
 Your credit card will be billed when each disk is shipped and you may cancel
 your subscription at any time without further obligation.
 
 Walnut Creek CDROM also sells a full line of FreeBSD related
 merchandise such as T-shirts ($14.95, available in "child", Large and
 XL sizes), coffee mugs ($9.95), tattoos ($0.25 each) and posters
 ($3.00).
 
 Shipping (per order not per disc) is $5 in the US, Canada or Mexico
 and $9.00 overseas.  They accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American
 Express or checks in U.S. Dollars and ship COD within the United
 States.  California residents please add 8.25% sales tax.
 
 Should you be dissatisfied for any reason, the CD comes with an
 unconditional return policy.
 
 
 Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code
 -------------------------------------------------------
 
 Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
 valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
 (preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
 
 The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
 internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command.  Bug reports
 will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
 be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
 as possible.  Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
 in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
 and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
 watch out for.
 
 If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
 submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
 
                 bugs@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Otherwise, for any questions or suggestions, please send mail to:
 
                 questions@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
 extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
 enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves!  To
 contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
 mail to:
 
                 hackers@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
 amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
 are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
 may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
 
                 announce@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 All but the freebsd-bugs groups can be freely joined by anyone wishing
 to do so.  Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
 `help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message.  This
 will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
 archives, etc.  There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
 special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
 and ask about them!
 
 
 6. Acknowledgements

 hundreds, of individuals from around the world who have worked very
 hard to bring you this release.  It would be very difficult, if not
 impossible, to enumerate everyone who's contributed to FreeBSD, but
 nonetheless we shall try (in alphabetical order, of course). If you've
 contributed something substantive to us and your name is not mentioned
 here, please be assured that its omission is entirely accidental.
