And if you've got a 5.3 system which is available now, why not set things up and test it, and then start using it? If something breaks, tell us about it-- (a) you're likely to get help fixing the problem, and (b) the FreeBSD folks would like to fix any problems now, before 5.3 is released, so the more testing the betas get, the better. -- -Chuck
