I prefer kernel 2.4.x for production server, since its
much very stable and secure.

Latest is 2.4.31 at the moment. But xenU - 2.4.30
also i might have a wish to compile few modules (ipchains support)
where do i get the source for 2.4.x tree ?

I haven't been updating it since our benchmarks show that the 2.6 kernel is over 50% faster than the 2.4 and it has reached a mature enough state where almost all distributions are shipping 2.6 as their stock kernel. I'll have to see if Xen has been updated to 2.4.31 kernel, if it has then I will build it and announce it to the Kernel Updates forum.

Thanks for a hint, I might try 2.6.-latest now

PS: Yes, thats really faster, you shouldt have say that ;)
Now when those strange delays are gone, i`m not thinking of moving to 64 Plan ;) Since everything runs smooth on a tiny 32
