Description Stephen Fisher 2010-01-10 01:50:04 UTC

Please consider adding the filename of the default freebsd-update configuration file (/etc/freebsd-update.conf) higher in the handbook page on freebsd-update, preferably before the configuration file's options are being discussed.  Section 24.2.1: "The Configuration File" seems like the right place for this.  Right now, it is only listed further down under sections 24.2.2 and 24.2.4.  The filename on a 8.0-RELEASE base install is /usr/local/share/doc/freebsd/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html (on my English system, the /usr/local/share/doc/freebsd/handbook links to /usr/local/share/doc/freebsd/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook).  I encountered this minor issue when reading the handbook online at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html.  Thanks!
