Our IPCop box and our ADSL modem are choke points. The ADSL modem is the only thing we have that we don't have a backup for. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

The problem I was having, after the huge update to 5.2, with the Evolution Calendar (which I do not use) crashing, when I exited from Evolution, has almost completely disappeared. One or more of the updates since the huge update eliminated most of that problem. It seems to only happen now when I am going to log out of my Desktop or shut it down and only rarely. -- MailScanner is like deodorant...
