Paul, At this point, 2.3 is only half-baked. The last feature that I'm adding is support for multiple ISPs -- that code is "fresh off the press" and isn't well tested. I would suggest that you wait until I release 2.4.0 then update the Bering build. I plan to go through a normal Beta cycle for 2.4.0 so it should get some good testing. It is likely that the CVS tree will be moved to Sourceforge after 2.4.0 is released. That seems to me to be the best place to put it to ensure that it is always available. -Tom PS -- I've subscribed myself to the leaf-devel list again so I can help with this transition. -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
