You really should proceed with the snapshot, but its your machine...

Yes, I know about the upgrade procedure. I was just thinking that if the new version was due to release, it would be no problem for me wait, say, a couple of days. But, since there is no exact date I will proceed with rc2. Thank you, Roberto Holger Bauer wrote: You can upgrade from a snap directly to RC3 when it becomes available (should be soon but no exact date yet). It only needs a reboot and a downtime for the reboot depending on the speed of your hardware.

If it's close, then probably it would be better for me to wait a couple of days than to put in production the older version. Thank you, Roberto Holger Bauer wrote: There have been some hundred codechanges form RC2 to the recent snaps ( see http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/timeline ). RC2 actually is several weeks old now and we are very close to RC3 (RC2 is dated in CVS 1st of august). As we only fix bugs in the releng_ 1 codetree you can consider every new snapshot more stable or including less bugs then a previous version. If you are encountering problems of some sort you always should try to reproduce them with the latest snapshot as they might be fixed already and wh y should we look into problems just to find out "ah, that was fixed several weeks ago or was related to a bug that was fixed weeks ago".

I'm about to put into production a new server running the latest version of pfSense available at the page, which is rc2. Now, I'm seeing that if that version gives problems it won't be supported because it's old, and I'm supposed to use a daily snapshot instead?????

RC2 is quite old.

After the reboot everything seems fine and the CARP address is removed. I have no idea how to debug this so can any of you give me pointers ? Attached is the output of the last dmesg The network card where the CARP address was configured is using the ste driver and is a 4-port D-link network adapter. The machines used are Dell PE2850 single processor HTT enabled. More information can be provided if necessary. TIA!
