I just inherited maintenance of a client's FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE server. It appears that it was installed in 2003 and hasn't been updated since 2005. It's running some internal websites built on Apache and Perl, with databases kept in both MySQL and PostgreSQL. Everything is running fine for now, but the client would like to do more development on the system and is afraid of potential security issues with the outdated OS and software. Is it feasible to forklift this machine all the way up to a current FreeBSD version, or would it be better to build a fresh system on new hardware and migrate the applications and data by hand? How far back do FreeBSD security patches currently reach?
