I don't know if this is good publicity or just highlights my foolishness, but beta 1 was released 4 days before school started, and during those days I installed a new tjener and 22-workstation lab, created all the accounts, migrated data, set up the samba shares, installed the nw printers. Its all been running smoothly for 4 weeks now (had to restart cups one day, no time to investigate why), and I'm so much happier to start cleanly than trying to upgrade during the school year. I still haven't got round to the backup server, however, so it probably is foolishness after all.
