So stick with 7.3, and check for kernel and security updates, and call it a day? Anything else to look out for?
I'm just pretty bummed, after I talked Linux up as being waaaay better than windoze (which it still is), to have to explain away all these problems. They're definately converts after the last server I built for them, but I'm sure it's getting harder to remember the those 4 years of 99.999% uptime now that the new box has been off and on for a month. :-(
Thanks for your comments
