I think I mentioned this twice with little response by the DC community, but here goes a third time. I have things set up so that I can kill DC, swap in the new executables and restart DC, all in about 4 minutes or less. And if things go wrong, I can fall back just as fast. Users don't know that I've done anything (if the upgrade is good); I usually do it during lunchtime....so there shouldn't be a problem with doing it prime shift. So upgrade shouldn't be a big deal. Of course, I'm running a pretty vanilla DC install with no real plugin, no deliver, etc.

Now it's like an apartment in Bed-Stuy: you need three heavy duty pick-proof locks, one of those braces that goes from the lock to the floor, and bars on the windows.... ==== Stewart Dean, Unix System Admin, Bard College, New York 12504 sdean@bard.edu voice: 845-758-7475, fax: 845-758-7035
