Whereas this is to be a Postfix server, I would like to know, which version of 5.x should I install, or perhaps there is a way to use linux emulation for pam and nss under 4.x? If, however, 5.x I must install, which would people recommend and what problems will I be facing by putting it into production? Curtis
