Well, the problem when using testing-debs or tagged packages
(/etc/apt/preferences) that some basic stuff like libc, etc. is updated
to testing too because of the dependencies.
A simple solution for this "problem" (for me anyway) is to get the
testing source-package and compile it against the standard woody. BTW.,
it's also a nice way when U have to change the standard configure
settings (like port-ranges, etc.). It was my first debian package that I
installed that way but it was really straight forward...

Brendon,
2.4.4 is in -testing if you're interested. I know lots of people track
-stable on servers, but you end up pretty far behind the curve. I've
found testing to be pretty reliable-- it's a nice balance between
up-to-date and works-as-expected. :)
I'm tracking -testing on my amanda box and have had no problems.
Cheers,
Eric
