Hey SuSE Users!

Hello SuSE Users,

Few questions.  I have SuSe 8.x on all of my machines except for my
server. This is a home lan.  I still have 7.2 on it. The majority of
the users ( my wife and kids) are windoze users and access data via
a very stable samba config. I want to upgrade to 8.0. Now the questions:

1.  Is it advisable, or leave well enough alone?
2.  What will it break?  ( I upgraded a 7.3 box to 8.0 without a hitch!)
3.  Any oops with samba?  Will I have to reconfigure it?
4.  Any oops with BRU?
5.  Any issues with KDE?  (I only use it for graphical stuff once in a
    while)
6.  I have 8.1, but 8.0 actually seems more stable, any thoughts?
7.  I have separately partitioned /home and /public drives, I plan to
    leave them that way, and issues?
8.  How major is it to set up ssh instead of telnet? ( my server sits
    behind a firewall, I have an 8.0 box as a secure gateway to the
    internet, on a cable modem.  Telnet is only used by me internally.
    I have no access from outside, no apache, etc.)
9.  Any suggestions, experiences, watch out for this, make sure to do
    this?

Thanks in advance for any advice.  As I said, nothing is broken, just
wanted to get up to a more modern version of SuSE. If there are major
issues, I will leave it as it is.

Best Regards,

Keith.
