Updates installed
Today I installed a number of updates.

First, the latest version of PMAS (Precise Mail Anti Spam) has been installed: 3.2.7 – I was still running 3.2.5; it does it’s job (silently but well) but it may include some (internal) enhancements. One thing for sure: if messages are released from the user quarantine or discard pages, the page is reloaded – and the released messages won’t show up anymore.
Second, I updated the WASD web server to the latest version (11.0.2) which meant the sites have been off line for s short time.One small glitch here: Following the manual, the update procedure couldn’t locate the INSTALL procedure so I had to make a small change. But once the update had run and the server is started, all seems well. I just have to disable a number of obsolete configuration items, and look for the new HTTP2 possibilities; I haven’t enabled them yet.
Next, I updated a few packages from the sane forge: DCLInABox (terminal emulator over HTTP), AlaMode (real-time server monitor), and Mondesi (6.0.1) – which requires more configuration on the server (obviously). But for some reason, this still refers to the very old version (2.0.0) which didn’t work anyway, even when the actual image is uninstalled and deleted. So for this, I need to do some (WATCH) analysis.
So apart from Mondesi, all went smoothly. As you would expect.
