Don't want to start a news flame war.. but INN 1.7 works just great. Since upgradng from an unpatched INN 1.5.1 which was crashing every few _hours_, it hasnt crashed since. The only real maintenance I have to do is watching the availabe disk space as it has ONLY 20G :) Oh, btw this is INN-1.7.insync, which is a version of INN which has a few patches configured in.. compiles very easily on FreeBSD.
