Changing the subject so as not to hijack the thread....

So just upgrading the server to 2.5.x won't buy me tape spanning?  The
server and client both have to be done?

Not a huge deal since I've just got a couple of hosts that are to the
point of needing the capability, but I just want to be sure I understand
what I'm getting into.

Thanks,
