Userland Changes
ifconfig(8) now supports a staticarp option for an interface, which disables the sending of
ARP requests for that interface.
中譯: ifconfig 新增 staticarp 參數,用來取消該介面送出ARP查詢.

ifconfig(8) now prints the polling(4) status on the interface.
中譯: ifconfig 新增 顯示介面的 polling 狀態

killall(1) now supports a -e flag to make the -u operate on effective, rather than real,
user IDs.
中譯: killall 新增 -e 參數,就如同先前-u參數一般,針對使用者來進行kill

The default mode for the lost+found directory of fsck(8) is now 0700 instead of 01777.
中譯: 預設的 lost+found 資料夾權限變更為 0700

makewhatis(1), formerly a Perl script, has been reimplemented in C.
中譯: makewhatis 更新whatis資料庫程式,由Perl變更為C語言編寫.

ps(1) compatibility with POSIX/SUSv3 has been improved.
The changes include -p for a list of process IDs, -t for a list of terminal names,
-A which is equivalent to -ax, -G for a list of group IDs, -X which is the opposite of -x,
and some minor improvements. For more information, see ps(1).
中譯: ps 新增 -p -a -g -x 等等參數

stat(1) from NetBSD, as of 5 June 2002 has, been imported.
中譯: 新增原屬NetBSD的stat指令.

which(1), formerly a Perl script, has been reimplemented in C.
中譯: which 由Perl變更為C語言編寫.

Contributed Software
BIND has been updated from version 8.3.4 to version 8.3.7.

OpenSSL has been updated from version 0.9.7c to version 0.9.7d.

sendmail has been updated from version 8.12.9 to version 8.12.11.
中譯:內建的版本BIND改為8.3.7 ,OpenSSL變為0.9.7d ,sendmail則為8.12.11版.

Ports/Packages Collection Infrastructure
The SIZE attribute for distfiles, which can be used for checking file sizes before fetching,
has been added and enabled by default.

DISABLE_SIZE is a user control knob to disable the distfile size checking.
This is especially useful on old FreeBSD versions which didn't have fetch(1)
support for this,and for some FTP proxies which always report incorrect or bogus sizes.
中譯: SIZE 參數用來在取得檔案之前檢查檔案的大小.而DISABLE_SIZE則是用來管理是否開啟這項功能.

Two new files have been added to the ports tree to track note-worthy changes:
ports/CHANGES lists major changes to the Ports Collection and its infrastructure.
ports/UPDATING describes some potential pitfalls that can be encountered when
updating certain ports,
analogous to src/UPDATING for the base system.
中譯:新增 CHANGES 用來紀錄主要的變更及內容, UPDATING 則是用來紀錄某些潛在的升級陷阱.

Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, you generally will have
three options:
Using the binary upgrade option of sysinstall(8). This option is perhaps the quickest,
although it presumes that your installation of FreeBSD uses no special compilation options.

Performing a complete reinstall of FreeBSD.
Technically, this is not an upgrading method, and in any case is usually less convenient
than a binary upgrade, in that it requires you to manually backup and
restore the contents of /etc.
However, it may be useful in cases where you want (or need) to change the partitioning of
your disks.

From source code in /usr/src. This route is more flexible, but requires more disk space,
time, and technical expertise.

More information can be found in the ``Using make world'' section of the FreeBSD Handbook.
Upgrading from very old versions of FreeBSD may be problematic; in cases like this,
it is usually more effective to perform a binary upgrade or a complete reinstall.
中譯:若要進行升級,同樣有三種選擇:
1.透過/stand/sysinstall 進行binary安裝,此方式最快,系統會認定你的沒有自己增加額外的特別設定.
2.重新安裝FreeBSD,這不能算是升級..= = 你必須手動備份/etc及相關資料.
3.用 /usr/src 進行upgrade. 請參閱 Handbook 中的 Using make world .
