There is a port for inn-1.5.1sec2. inn-1.7 compiles with minimal
difficulty.

We ran 1.5.what_ever_it_was for about six months on FreeBSD without
problems, and 1.7 has been running fine for ..., <switching to the news
box to check uptime :)> 25 days since it was installed.

Since June there have been only one or two reboots of the machine that
weren't for hardware/software upgrades.  Innd has died and needed to be
restarted once or twice.  BSDi, running the same 1.5 version of inn,
wouldn't last more than about two weeks on average.

Couldn't tell you, I don't know what our upstream is using.

When I put server-side nocem on it yesterday is the first time it's been
touched since Dec. 29th.

Look at ccd(4)


Any another questions either email me privately or move it to the
freebsd-isp list where the topic is more appropriate.  :)
