I'm not sure Sysinstall's upgrade will handle 2.2.7 to 3.0... I've never used it though, I seem to remember getting as far as the 'impending doom' screens... When we install our boxes here we do them from clean, we have install logs for them that list the distributions that were put on, the ports that were added - and how the applications (e.g. apache etc.) were setup, so we're quite lucky... You might want to check in -current and the archives to see what issues surround going from 2.2.7 to 3.0... A seperate box might be the 'ideal' way to go if you have the spare boxes, and always remember to back the system up <G> Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
