We have upgraded from 7.2.2 to 7.4.1 (and now 7.4.2) a few months ago and have
been very pleased with it. We are running Network Modules for Oracle, Exchange,
and SQL Server. We also are doing NDMP backups of our Netapps and CBRM backup
of our EMC Centera with no issues.
The newui is very different, but once you get used to it, it has a lot of
advantages.

i'm in the process of bringing a new networker server on-line. (sun
5240, replacing a sun 490). based on much of the grumbling here i had
been planning on continuing on with 7.2.2. davina's message was a
pleasant surprise this morning. is it the general consensus that 7.4.2
is ready for prime time?
(i will confess that the comments about the new gui don't leave me with
warm fuzzies, but what's one more sucky java interface?)
