On Wed, Apr 26, 2006 at 10:02:29AM +0200 I heard the voice of Tyrone.VanDerHaar@TelecityRedbus.com, and lo! it spake thus: > > I would like to upgrade the OS to 6.1RC1 to get the better support > for CARP on VLAN interfaces.What would the best way be to upgrade > with minimum downtime? If it were me, I'd just upgrade the box as-is by buildworld; 5 and 6 are close enough that major problems aren't too likely (of course, this is 'in general'; a single occurance of a major problem isn't much globally, but it sure does hurt when it happens to you ;). Unless something goes wrong, your downtime is two reboots. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
