Re: make errors with 2.3.17. fixed

[dennis <dennis@utiba.com>]

Hi,
I do intend you use the distro's upgrade path in the future and prefer 
it that way. I currently run 2.2.23-5mdk in production (a 2005 machine). 
This was just to check out if the support for cleartext passwords was 
working in the new version and to get ready for an upgrade of 
production. It wasn't on my current 2006 2.3.6-4mdk version which I 
still have installed with the compiled version running beside it. But 
now that I am aware of your rpms i will use them in future.
Thanks for your help.
