[jameswilson]

charlie i know your going to point me to the red text but i think its cos im using it outside of scope. feel free to point me to the tracker mind.

I had a sme 7.6 box running well but had the php5 cgi vulnerability so braved the yum upgrade.
all seemed to go well. but on reboot

Code: [Select]

xenguesthelper is not part of SME server software.

it probably isnt mate but this was a sme 7.x (well 7.5) installed as a xen guest. Upgrades always went well. I was worried about upgrading it as i knew if i had an issue i would be told i was using sme in an unsupported way. I agree i was.

But thanks anyway

I doubt that is the issue. You appear to have this installed. I suggest you remove it.
