The 9.5 tcp/rcp had a tendency to scramble large files -- a bug that Apollo said they could not reproduce. The update to 9.5.1 has reduced the problem, but we still get some errors in large file rcp's. The rwhod deamon has not worked correctly since 9.2.* and our routed tables get munged occasionally and I have to kill the tcp server and related processes are restart. We too have been assured that 9.6 will fix these problems and Apollo asked if we would like to beta-test 9.6 for them. I was proud of myself for politely declining. This was only about 3 weeks ago, so 9.6 probably won't be out for a while -- if they actually test their software before they ship it. What fun! Just think, we could have had suns instead.
