Redhat _9_ has been EOL'd. You'd think anyone paying Accpac prices could demand they use something from this century at least. Doesn't Accpac have any sort of test suite of data they could use to verify it's working correctly? Guess not. And I guess they have no understanding of (or cares about) system level security flaws that may need to be fixed? Where are those going to come from for RH 8? All you can do is inform the boss, so he knows the situation when he goes ahead and does it anyway. :-P -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
