I usually have to do updates like that on the weekends, as I can't depend on a 3AM reboot to be up in the morning when Exec's are in. A reboot I trust, but not the first one after a kernel change. On a weekend I can drive in and see what happened if necessary and switch to a backup router. In our main office I have 2 running side by side and I can log in to the T1 router and change switch ports to swap them. Then a reboot on the router to hasten the MAC changeover. Usually 5 minutes tops.On Thu, Jul 24, 2008 at 6:29 PM, Scott Silva <ssilva-m4n3GYAQT2lWk0Htik3J/w@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:on 7-24-2008 4:18 PM Lanny Marcus spake the following:On Thu, Jul 24, 2008 at 5:04 PM, Scott Silva <ssilva@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:on 7-24-2008 2:41 PM Lanny Marcus spake the following:I know a lot of you are using IPCop where you work. They have three (3) updates posted, during the past two (2) days. The last one, I'm getting an error, when I try to Download it, and I will report that to the IPCop list or bugzilla after I send this message. "No such file or directory http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ipcop/ipcop-1.4.21-update.i386.tgz.gpg?download";Sometimes their updates take a while to hit the mirrors. I don't think they delay the announcements until the mirrors are synced.<snip> Scott: After I posted that, a few minutes later, it was working and I posted a follow up here that it's working OK. LannyYeah... Those always show up right after you hit "send" don't they?In this case, it was about 7 minutes later. I know you are one of the people on this list who use IPCop at work. One of the 3 updates requires a reboot for the updated kernel. I told my wife and daughter they were going to lose connectivity for several minutes. At work, you do the reboot at 3 A.M. or you have users who are furious, or you send them a message the network is going down temporarily? The phone company replaced our ADSL Modem and with the change to opendns.com our Internet service is working *much* better. :-)
