I'm not sure which version it is.  It doesn't really say anywhere,
and the device itself is a limited 'ios' shell. Of course, I could
boot off of another linux cdrom and mount the filesystems, but i
have concerns about loosing support if I do that. It probably
wouldn't happen, but I'm paranoid, especially when I may have
support needs for putting it into production. :)

For what it's worth, the Apache version is 1.3.27, which is fairly
current, so I wouldn't be suprised if it's in the 7.3 strain.

Here's some of the postmaster log, though. I don't know if it'd help
anyone figure out which  version it is:
