The Cobalt Raq appliance is for all of us that want an appliance. If you do not need an appliance, by all means upgrade all you want. For the rest of us, Cobalt is keeping a restricted system to try and keep us safe and secure. I know, the box is not safe and secure without adding other things and turning off a few others. But, the operating system as shipped, used to be Red Hat 6.2, but Cobalt removed some things and modified others. With doing this, it is much more complicated upgrading the modules than fixing them. If it is not acceptable to you, do it yourself or buy another product. _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
