Warnings? Etc? #include <std_disclaimer.h> For me, upgrading from 2.1.x to 2.2.2 with the sysinstall upgrade option was pretty easy. Make sure you have a backup of your /etc directory beore you start. You'll have to do a lot of editing of the new /etc files, as most of them have changed considerably since 2.1.x days. Once you're finished with the upgrade, double check all new configuration files and diff them with teh old ones. It takes some time, but it's not that hard. > > -Mike Nadav
