No, I expect it to be the same when performing an update (as we did) - if an update causes problems like that, something has gone wrong and the distributor did a bad job. An update is not allowed to change any critical system settings.
It's not a critical system setting, it may change just on a reboot, if you change nothing...
You are a funny guy, right? Have you ever worked in an environment where Linux systems are actually used in production (large-scale)? I guess the obvious answer is no, otherwise you would know that these settings are critical. They are not allowed to change during or after a simple update (patch), certainly not in an enterprise version which (by definition) should provide a stable environment. Sorry, but sometimes I can only shake my head when reading these overly naive statements. Geez, it's time to end this thread... PS: Please do NOT send private copies of list emails.
