Julien, I only have about 10 clients, but I did the whole thing in about 35 mins the other day. I've been using the version provided by BlastWave, which provides an easy update mechanism. They also provide the SMF information used in Solaris 10 instead of an init script. For Linux, I've just been using the RPMs that are already available. 1.38.11 is a little bigger of an upgrade than 2.0.3 to 2.2.5 (which is what I did), but the upgrade from 1.38.11 to 2.0.3 (that is when I switched to the CSW packages) was pretty painless too. - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHMix7mb+gadEcsb4RAgCSAKDfKiudQS0uqVorpsp8/g+98AKLqACfUbkm lyuhInLDIHN7Ny7G7fuBLMI= =Hn+W -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
