Simon,
Bob don't ask for support he has a question.

I understand Bob because the 9.2 was the best version of all.
I self running a 9.2 in a secure environment and only internal.
No trouble from outcomming of this version to now, that are the facts.
I can't this say about the other versions from mandrake or mandriva
The 9.2 is a famous example for:
never touch a running system ;-)



Regards

Dieter
