following your install doc for upgrading it says: 1) stop all the VS's 2) move the skel 3) back-up vsd.conf 4) uninstall freeVSD 5) install new freeVSD 6) install a skel 7) create all the VS's again 8) transfer the volatile data to the new VS's created what's your estimated timescale for this considering say just 40 VS's, 1 server including picking through /etc to find altered files? Plus we had to rewrite sendmail.cf to get it to work on 1.4.9 so not sure if that will have to be done again. Also when we tested an uninstall previously we couldn't re-install freeVSD until we cleaned off everything and reloaded OS, is this a possibility? where's the documentation for what you have mentioned below for upgrading? Does upgrading to 1.4.9-2 mean a new skel has to be used? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Damion Parry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 11:19 AM Subject: Re: Sendmail Problems -- Error > Having just checked it out, I must apologise for the following: > > > upgrading the RPM in the skel should not be too traumatic, the whole > > idea of the skel is that you only have to do something once and it will > > be applied to all virtual servers.
