Dear Robin, I echo Bram's comments, we run DSpace on RHEL 4 and 5, under VMware on a number of different hardware ranging from my laptop, desktop to servers (dual processors, 2GB mem..etc) no problems at all. And having under VMware allows us to relocate the application to other boxes with minimal effort, like replacing the server.

It's either ant update or ant init_configs. I was doing several things at once so I can't really be specific here. I also did a Tomcat restart and an index-init (for other reasons) at the time, so I'm not sure if these steps are necessary for activating the changes in Messages.properties.
