I haven't specifically had any problems. Thanks. The mod_python I am currently running was probably installed when Apache 2.0.48 was current, so I'll definitely need an upgrade. I had previously thought that there was a distinct cutover point where mod_python stopped working in 2.0, so I'm happy to know this isn't the case (though I've been bitten before with Apache module inconsistency problems: for 2.0, at least on Windows, ISTR that modules had to be compiled for the exact Apache version in use - but that *was* a long time ago, so I may be suffering from CRS). Anyway, you've encouraged me to be more adventurous! regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://holdenweb.blogspot.com Recent Ramblings http://del.icio.us/steve.holden
