Hang on a sec. One of the Mac's major selling points, at least when I visited my local Apple stockist for a demo before buying mine was the fact that Apple has full control over the hardware and the software in use. Following that logic, they should most definitely be in a position to test with their own hardware I would think. Now, I do grant you that they're not able to test all external applications and services from other vendors. Regarding Rumpus specifically, I have discovered that if I run it as a system service under 10.4.4 it will not function correctly. The only way I can get it to play ball is to run it as a start-up application, or start it manually once all other services are logged in and settled down. This never used to be the case with 10.4.3 and earlier. So I can only assume that something has changed in the operating system when it starts up. Because Rumpus has not changed. I don't use the in-built FTP server because it doesn't have the power of Rumpus. At 13:35 13/01/2006 -0500, Travis Siegel said: >There were at least 21 iterations of 10.4.4.
