I seem to remember that I got some File Not Found errors when I did the first update, and I remember someone on the list saying that security updates were only available for the current stable release, so I commented out those entries. I don't suppose it would hurt anything to leave them in, it just seemed more efficient to not go after file listings that weren't going to be there anyway. -- Bud Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> They have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve.
