No, this is a question about the quoted text (which appears to imply that the lack of a package management system delays IPCop updates). For the record, I still have IPCop 1.4.21 (plus a few manual tweaks) happily plugging away on about a dozen boxes; so it would indeed be churlish of me to complain about the frequency of IPCop updates and I am not doing any such thing. > What delays are you speaking of? ... It was Mr. Espinasse who spoke of delays. I'm just asking about that. -- 73, Ged. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
