Since I have Raqcop for the Cobalt crowd, I now have my own public gpg key in the Raqcop builds as of now and then sign them, this will be in the next build be it rc2 or the actual 2.0 release depending on IPCop itself as far as the public being able to use it. This means that it will require a clean install the first time and then can be upgraded after that with little effort so anyone (all three people?) using Raqcop-2.0rc1 will not be able to upgrade to rc2 or 2.0 via the web gui. So far I can install after uploading via the web gui. I also have the cgi script and the functions perl library pointed to an update and a patch folder on my site. In the updates folder, just the gpg signed update and the release notes exist and in the patches folder, a 1.9.x.xml file exists. Am I missing anything? My site does not like any of the methods of retrieving files other than using a web browser. It throws an "ERROR 406: Not Acceptable" message. I am trying to get Brian Ridgeway to take a look since he hosts it and set it up, I have enough priviledges to get where I am so far but it is Brian's domain and hosting. Meanwhile I want to know if I have missed anything. It would appear that IPCop looks for three files in two directories. I'm doing this since Raqcop has enough differences, biosless and headless, requiring a different kernel package and uses no bootloader on mbr, the rom with it's own kernel starts the Raqcop kernel which is really a stage II kernel in this setting. I thought it should have a mechanism where nobody can easily put one of my updates on a PC version of IPCop and vice versa and not muck up their system. Any thoughts on what I am doing with updates? -- Dave http://www.raqcop.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
