Andy, Pete,

a big thank you for such a quick reply. Great service.
Andy, I did receive your e-mail.
I will come back to you once I'm prepared to do the update. I estimate that to happen around thursday/friday. By then the new updater will probably be available.

One thing: What timezone are you located in? I'm on MEST (Middle European summer time, GMT+2) and like to find a time frame where you are not still sleeping...

Regards
  Stefan

Stephan,

Greetings. I'm Andy. I'm the engineer for the installer. I'll take a comment on number 1 and let Pete hit you with the answers for the rest.

First off, since you are running Sniffer2 in persistant mode, it probably means you have it wrapped in a service that the installer won't understand how to unwravel. So you will probably need to stop the service in order to release the $license.exe for archiving.

That said, the installer makes an archive file of an old sniffer install in order to help people with a quick restore, for any reason. However, in confirming my answer for you, I noted that uninstalling SNF3.0 will put MXGaurds Auth and PathToEXE lines in the mxguard config file to their default values. This would orphan a <RESTORE> of the SNF2 image if we attempted to roll back the operation. To reconnect it, the AUTH and the PathToExe lines in the MXGuard config file would need to be corrected.

( That not being too difficult a fix if we did try to put the old install back. ) You should be able to proceed with confidence. If you would like to wait for the patch to the installer that will re-tie the restore back into MXGuard, I can have that out in the next 24hrs. )

I'll send you my contact information so you can have me available to you when you're making your upgrade.
Thanks for using Sniffer.

_Andrew Wallo
