In the never ending quest for early am entertainment, I popped in my new 2.2.1 CD and tried the upgrade from 2.1.5. No Problem. However, when trying to log in NONE of my users passwords worked!? I had to re-install, reset the root password, log in to the new system, delete and re add the users. I installed from a dos partition with a boot floppy. Seems that the install program needs to have a password maintenance function that is independant of actual install. (I could not just pop in the floppy and reset the password - had to step through an install) What did I miss? Otherwise, super work! Back up and running my full network with very little trouble! John
