I have 3 boxen converted from potato to woody. On one box (the potato converted from slink box), atd would not start. I never filed a bug report but did ask about it on this list, with no results. Joey's question reminded me of the problem and I just found the cause. In the slink/potato/woody box the /var/spool/cron/ permissions were 700 on the 2 boxes that had Potato installed from potato CD's the permission of /var/spool/cron/ were 755. All work fine now. That one problem, probably caused by the slink->potato upgrade was the only problem encountered when I went from potato to woody. I used Bunks listings and apt-get dist-upgrade(d) with no problems to speak of. Debian (Apt) Rules -- Southern DOS: Y'all reckon? (Yep/Nope) _______________________________________________________
