I've been running FreeBSD 4.x for eons now, mainly because of the fact that she's "known" in our environment ... UNIONFS isn't perfect, but all of the obvious/major bugs have been worked out of her, etc ... but, she's also a dead branch, so any outstanding bugs, nobody is interested in fixing them, let alone having reported ... I'm just in the process of putting together a new server, and based on some stuff I've heard recently concerning work that has been done on UNIONFS, I'm tempted to put 5.x onto this new server, to start bringing my servers into the 'current age' ... Is there anyone out there using 5-STABLE and UNIONFS that are happy with it, or is it still very problematic? Again, the key thing right now for me is UNIONFS, so I'm looking mainly for feedback from ppl that *are* using it, not just reading the end of the man page ... Thanks ... ---- Marc G.
