Yes. Specifically, get them to include the `nodeflate' option in any PPP 
configuring that they do, 'coz 8.2's pppd will panic or freeze your box if 
you try a deflated connect.

They will also need to install the Validate RPM by hand (from the 3rd CD 
OTToMH) if they install Mason.

Of course Debian, he says with straight face and iron control, has no bugs.
