Lots of people are happy with 2.2-stable. I'd suggest bring it up in test mode and run it for a few days under a test load and see how it holds up. Make sure you're using inn as configured out of the ports collection, particularly with the mmap stuff off. > So, from your experience, should I upgrade to 2.2.2 or should I stick it > out with 2.2.1? I don't think 3.0-current is much of an option for me. Do a 2.2.2 install and then 'make world' to bring it up to -stable. The world build will also be a good shakeout of the system before you put it into serious work. -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control.
