Hi again,
	Cool, that's pretty much what I wanted to know. A real shame 
about the quotas, but I guess there are ways around it. I suppose the 
problem may well be to do with HFS+ as opposed to UFS - disk quotas 
are supposed to work under UFS.
	Obviously, the best thing is to have a mirrored backup in 
case something goes haywire.
	2 things from your reply - you mention that the update takes 
'a long time' to 10.2 - what kind of timeframe are we talking?
	The other thing - you mentioned a couple of things with the 
update, 'certain changes in your configuration' & 'iTools settings 
should be preserved'. What changes will we be looking at in terms of 
the configuration of the system & are you saying that there are no 
changes to the iTools settings - a simple reinstall of the iTools 
package will suffice? That's great news if it turns out to be true.


	Bye for now, Terry Allen
