  • Tony Ellis is indeed running 6.8 - on 7 machines - a mixture of 32 and 64 bit - since shortly after 6.8 went into test. No problems encountered except on the 64 bit machines where the 32-bit and 64 bit rpms upgrades have gotten out of sync. The 64 bit machines need to run some 32-bit binaries, hence both rpm upgrades must be at the same level. Note that I only run a subset of ClearOS apps - no flexshares, no dnsmasq, no paid apps, no BackupPC, no Serviio etc and on one machine no ldap (though it is running ClearOS!)

    As for the comment "Just switch to 7.2 ;-) 6.x is old fashion" - I do have a 7.x test machine and when I decide it is stable enough, and I have upgraded all the apps I have written, I will migrate... fashion has not to do with it :-) suitability for purpose is... My year 2000 VW Golf still performs admirably the reason for owning it!
