It's basically a re-release of 1.3b18, with two fixes thrown in. No major bugs have been reported anymore, but as always, upgrade on your own risk :) Congratulations! WooHoo! Now to tear into it! :) > If you're upgrading a 1.2 generic-pc installation, you need to install 1.3b7 before you install 1.3 (because the image is too big to fit in the MFS that 1.2 allocates for the firmware upgrade). > > If you're upgrading a 1.2 net45xx/net48xx/wrap installation, you need to rename the embedded image to reflect your platform before you upload it (this is a one time thing only). Is there no way to create a step release? A 1.3 with a smaller footprint... The reason I ask is that I have over 100 firewalls to upgrade remotely! I know 1.3b7 is fairly stable, but that "b" is still a bit scary... And I am trying to think how I can write upgrade documentation that will be approved by the PHBs with a "b" in them... :-) Lee
