Wouldn't make a bit of difference to me... I'm running 2.1.7 as our company firewall & web server, which was upgraded from 2.1.5. (I took my 2.1.0 CD's and melted them down for entertainment. 2.1.5+ was a LOT better!) The upgrade .5->.7 went flawlessly, and I haven't had a bit of difficulty since. The occasional upgrade doesn't bother me. Side Note: I just wish I could say the same thing when I upgraded our DEC Alpha 3000 from OSF 3.0 to 3.2D..... Or from 2.0 to 3.0..... In a nutshell, those four (yes, four) evenings sucked. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Mike Nowlin -- Part-time Genius Home: mike@argos.org | | Suburban Medical Laboratory, Inc.
