Hi Nick,
I understand; I guess here, a devel server would come in handy for
making sure everything works before going production.
Ordinarily, one or two RPMs to upgrade is no big deal but doing all of
them at once made me nervous and it turns out I had a good reason for
being nervous, heh.
Yeah, I had the same experience there. Is there a way to get the RPM to
do like an Apache style RPM-save file where if it files that file, it
writes like a vpomail.mysql.orig or something and leaves the one that's
already there intact?
