I'd like to make sure my host has an updated kernel, with the security hole fixed. But I'm not quite sure how kernel upgrades work in the tummy virtual server environment. Is it safe for me to go ahead and install an updated kernel in my virtual machine, or is that something tummy would have to do?

This option in the management control panel has been disabled until I can track down the source of the problem and take corrective measures. I expect to have this completed within the next day or two. This will not impact the normal running of the virtual machines. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know. I should have this corrected within the next day or two. Thanks, Sean -- Why would I want to be a Doctor, when I could be a MASTER?
