Hi,

I've got three servers servicing around 800 users which I need to upgrade
to -stable over the easter break.

I have no trouble with cvsup and getting the -stable source tree, but
before I jump in I thought I'd describe the 3 servers and see if there
would be any hidden gotchas in the upgrade.

I will also be upgrading all application software to the latest stable
releases.


Server 1
--------
Email, WWW server, squid proxy, router running ip-filter, majordomo
Machine is running 2.1.6-RELEASE

Can I upgrade the machine by doing a make world of stable and compiling a
new kernel?

Server 2
--------
Email, WWW server, squid proxy, router running ip-filter, samba and
netatalk
Machine is running 2.2.1-RELEASE

Server 3
--------
Squid proxy, router running ip-filter
Machine is running 2.2.1-RELEASE

For the 2 2.2.1-RELEASE boxes I should just be able to make world and
compile a new kernel, shouldn't I?

I can see trouble with the 2.1.6 box, but should the 2.2.1 boxes upgrade
OK?

Thanks in advance,

Gavin Cameron
