Hi Charlie,
Well as the song said, paranoia runs deep! I did what you said,
and it went slick as a whistle. Took all of 4-5 minutes and I went
from DX Spider Cluster version 1.54 (build 0.135) to DX Spider
Cluster version 1.54 (build 0.153) with no loss of anything. Scripts
and users and all the like are as before, except I now have whatever
enhancements/fixes that have been applied between build 0.135 and
build 0.153. I was careful with the original install to put things
where the instructions said, so all of my local settings were
preserved. Thanks for the help.
And thanks to Dirk for making it seamless . . . this works works
quite well indeed!
