I ran unstable on a server for several years in order to have some more up-to-date packages (this was in the woody era). I eventually regretted it, as e.g. libc updates are things you can live without when trying to provide a stable service. I'd just go with stable, keep an eye on the debian-security list and backport anything that you really need (which should be very little). -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
