Agreed, we actually re-launched the site on RHEL v3 Update 1, Perl 5.8.x, latest mysql, etc. However there were big problems with SCSI and our raid card in that release and the server completely stopped responding after only being up for a few days. It took over a year for Redhat to come up with anything close to a fix, they had implemented "improvements" in the SCSI subsystem which wrecked havoc on mostly DELL systems. All the while we sat on a perfectly good box because Redhat mucked things up. Since then we've been real apprehensive to switch to any new OS. We will be attempting the switch over to the new server, new os and new IC when we finish the site redesign/recode. -Ron _______________________________________________ interchange-users mailing list suppressed http://www.icdevgroup.org/mailman/listinfo/interchange-users
