Something to bear in mind when testing 2.6 is that not all security fixes from 2.4 are in te 2.6 kernel. One wag on the kernel list suggested that it should be called 2.6.0-hack-my-machine rather than 2.6.0-test1. It'd be best not to expose it to a "hazardous environment" such as a direct connection to the Internet. {^_^} -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
