OpenBSD Realpath Patching

Finally did the realpath patch last night. Rebuilt all the statically linked binaries in /bin & /sbin, most important of all, mountd, at least according to the info in the patch instructions. Sometimes I think it would be just as easy to do a new install, & just save the /home slice. Got my mail backed up on my Sandisk that I mount. Still looking to get a good buy on a larger one. Office Depot had 256MB one's this week in the Sunday paper for $55.65, but I can get them cheaper on eBay, even with shipping. Guess it's a matter of principle. :-) Anyway, everything is still working okay on my laptop. Seems like a real miracle, but I guess I did all the patching right!
