Second time I hear this remark. Only ONE thought here : BETA is not -STABLE, and it may contain bugs and instabilities. Whenever a BETA is considered good, then it should become the new stable, superseding the previous stable. It sounds to be it is not exactly the way it works here. (okokok... This is BSD philosophy).
I'd rather have something considered stable on my box - which SHOULD BE something known good - than having something considered "work in progress; mind your head !". I am reluctant to install this beta server. Additionally, in the past, all the username/password to beta FTP I've found on the archives were invalid. Another comment: When I got back to my server, after a day being away, I found the server empty. Strange... Then I decided to play a bit and started my connection. Surprise, surprise... the old and good error (bad character from client or something) was happening once again ! I did not even need to go check my mail to know that a new security patch was released. At 07:28 PM 11/21/2002, you wrote:
Linux server? Download the latest beta server, the link is somewhere in the list archives. Otherwise, restart the server.
