No, you could update to 5.5R without issue. In fact, moving to 6.0R from 5.x without having to re-install like going from 4.x to 5.x is the plan Personally, I would update to RELENG_5 as of today. There are a lot of bug fixes and its quite solid.. ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, Sentex communications http://www.sentex.net Providing Internet Access since 1994 mike@sentex.net, (http://www.tancsa.com)
