I've made some updated RPMs available at:

ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/charlieb/RPMS/noarch

The rpms are:

e-smith-base-4.0.12-33.noarch.rpm

and

e-smith-email-4.0.6-11.noarch.rpm

and you should be able to find the source RPMs if you are interested.

You should consider these beta releases.

Differences you will find from the e-smith 4.0 release are:

- Dynamic DNS is enabled for PPP connections, both dialup and PPPoE.

- Support is added for Dynamic DNS from www.tzo.com (but this is not yet
  tested).

- The yi DynamicDNS client was not quoting parameters, which would cause
  problems if passwords contained spaces or other metacharacters.

- The diald configuration is slightly changed to avoid problems with use
  of 192.168.1.x addresses.

- The console configuration wizard is optimized to offer the existing
  setup as first choice for each dialog. Thanks to Scott Smith for
  contributing the code.

- httpd and samba are not restarted following an IP change, just
  sighupped.

- The fetchmail configuration is tweaked to correctly handle mutiple
  virtual domains in multidrop mode. Fetchmail now does verbose logging,
  via syslog.

- The call to the nonexistent "qmailq" command during the ip-up event is
  removed, and a call to flush the mail queue is added in its place.

If you have a non-critical server, and would like to help, please give
these RPMs a run though their paces. Please let me know about your
experiences.

Regards
