Hi All, An associate of mine has this Debian server in a hosting facility that's been running for about two years, and would like to do a dist-upgrade. Does anyone see any reason that this might screw things up? I'm a bit concerned about the large number of changes that will be applied.
Below are some things that I see when preparing to upgrade. TIA for any comments.
