As I said above, copying the configuration files does not work - there is some weird thing going on with where it generates unique configuration file names.
Yes, it works. But you don't "copy files" from one machine to another in a corporate setting -- that is home user thinking. You give users home directories on a central server and mount it from there. In a standard unix configuration it wouldn't matter much which machine you logged into. All settings and configuration files are stored in your home directory.
I have to try and do an ftp install for the first time ever
Don't. It doesn't work. Tried it 6 times last night (mirror on ftp.uninett.no was already available), but the perl-install process loops on downloading package lists. It can't find hdlist2.cz which is supposed to cover media 3. I was even stupid enough to fry my root partition in an attempt at clean install when upgrade didn't work (separate/home partition. Nothing lost but time). Now I'm back to using RH9 with XD2. It's stable and has gorgeous font rendering. Sub-pixel hinting really works on my laptop (Thinkpad A31p), but it tends to crash when I wake it from suspend. Which sucks, cause I hate having to logout when leaving for/from work.
If you have an example of a SpamAssassin linkup that keeps the mail connection open (and issues a bounce with error code when analysis is done), please share!
Exim patched with Exiscan does that. You can bounce incoming messages based on a virus check, too. Any message is checked before Exim sends "250 Message OK" so it won't enter any local queues.
