Hi all, So, I'm sure this has been discussed before but I would like to get some up-to-date input on this.
I have been administering a Debian network for about a year and a half now. >From my experience, stable does not have a quick path to getting version updates incorporated into it. This makes for a hassle if you want to run, for instance, an up to date sendmail server. I have seen this sort of problem on a number of my servers. My solution (probably the wrong one) has been to update whatever I needed to from testing and slag through whatever conflicts resulted from the mixed system. It seems that if I want to have things run smoothly when I am upgrading or installing new packages, it is best to either use one or the other. So, my question basically is testing generally good enough for most standard server implementations? What sort of uptimes can be expected? I know this is a general question since it will depend a lot on what I am doing with these servers and how heavily they are hit, etc. Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
