I would agree with that philosophy up to a point. It is definitely a matter of personal preference; however, for myself, I NEVER install version X.0 of any software if said software is to be used in a mission critical situation. I always wait until X.1 is released. If possible in your case, would it be feasible to wait until 9.1 is released? You can gather some info on it here: <http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/schedule.html>. As usual, any correlation between the expected release date and the actual date is purely coincidental. Just my 2=C2=A2 on the matter. --=20 Jerry =E2=99=94 Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
