+ Upgrading the FreeRADIUS port used to replace all unmodified files
+ in your configuration with the latest version from the sample
+ configuration. This strategy has two disadvantages; over time your
+ configuration became based on different versions of the sample
+ configuration, also major changes to the sample configuration could
+ leave your configuration in a confusing state.
+
+ From version 2.0.5, your configuration is not touched if any
+ configuration files have been modified.
+
+ You are recommended to track changes in the sample configuration and
+ keep your configuration in a version control system. I use
+ Subversion (see the devel/subversion port) to track my
+ changes. Keeping the sample configuration in a 'vendor branch' (see
+ the Subversion book for more details) allows easy merging of changes
+ from the sample configuration.
+
+ *** IMPORTANT ***
+
+ You are urged to move your configuration out of the default location
+ (/usr/local/etc/raddb) before upgrading from 2.0.4 (or earlier)
+ to 2.0.5 (or later). Once this upgrade is complete, remove the sample
+ configuration that has been installed in the default location and
+ move your configuration back to the default location.
+
+ This is a one time procedure that will prevent unmodified files in
+ your configuration from being deleted from your configuration and not
+ restored during the upgrade. No customised files will be lost in any
+ circumstances.
+
+ The sample configuration in 2.0.5 has been reorganised: the
+ configuration of most modules is now in the modules directory rather
+ than in radiusd.conf. You are urged to rearrange your configuration
+ to match this layout.
+
+ There are several improvements in this version of the port, including
+ a new pkg-message that will help new FreeRADIUS users to get started
+ with the port, also new 'reload' and 'debug' commands for the rc.d
+ script. Enjoy!
