Each to their own; I upgraded my production box from bo to hamm pre-autoup and even pre-HOWTO and all the way to final hamm without visiting it once. I haven't been tracking slink, simply because I don't need anything new in it yet. If the system were stuffed, it would be a nuisance to go fix it, since it's located at my ISP in the CBD. The risk is small enough for me. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3TYD [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
