++ ++ + ++This document lists errata items for FreeBSD + 4.4-RELEASE, containing significant information + discovered after the release. This information includes + security advisories, as well as news relating to the + software or documentation that could affect its operation + or usability. An up-to-date version of this document + should always be consulted before installing this version + of FreeBSD.
+ +This errata document for FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE will be + maintained until the release of FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE.
+
This errata document contains ``late-breaking news'' + about FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE. Before installing this version, + it is important to consult this document to learn about any + post-release discoveries or problems that may already have + been found and fixed.
+ +Any version of this errata document actually distributed + with the release (for example, on a CDROM distribution) + will be out of date by definition, but other copies are + kept updated on the Internet and should be consulted as the + ``current errata'' for this release. These other copies of + the errata are located at http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/, plus any sites + which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location.
+ +Source and binary snapshots of FreeBSD 4-STABLE also + contain up-to-date copies of this document (as of the time + of the snapshot).
+ +For a list of all FreeBSD CERT security advisories, see + http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/ or ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/.
+Support for per-user ~/.login_conf files (as documented in + login.conf(5)) has been + disabled due to incorect merging of local and global + settings. This problem will be fixed in future + releases.
+The handling of some types of comments in + printcap(5) files is + faulty. If a comment line ends in :\ (the characters normally used to indicate + the continuation of a printer definition), the line + following the comment will be parsed as a part of the + previous printer definition.
+This file, and other release-related + documents, can be downloaded from ftp://stable.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/.
+ +For questions about FreeBSD, read the + documentation + before contacting <questions@FreeBSD.org>.
+ +All users of FreeBSD 4-STABLE + should subscribe to the <stable@FreeBSD.org> mailing + list.
+ +For questions about this documentation, + e-mail <doc@FreeBSD.org>.
