IF you need features in the 8.x code: Use 8.04(32) in the interim releases, if you are authenticating against a windows domain there are some key fixes in there.  

Love this tidbit of info in the 8.2.1 release notes:

"The caveats listed in Table 5 are recently-found caveats that were fixed in interim builds for previous versions; however, they are still open in Version 8.2 (they will be addressed in future releases)"

Guess a year is not long enough to release 8.05 or have all known previous bugs in 8.2.1.

Stay away from 8.2. We are experiencing crashes since July (TAC case involved). Tomorrow we will install 8.2.1-10 to see if finally
we get rid of this.

Hi, I'm running a pair of ASA5520 devices as VPN concentrators.  Presently there is a software image installed that seems very old
and was actually shipped with the devices before I arrived on the scene.  I'm experiencing some issues with bringing up L2L tunnels
and figured that a firmware update was in order.  What version are folks using successfully?  I was thinking of going with the 8X
code but not sure which one to choose.  The features I'm using are very basic and include simple client access and LAN to LAN
access, I'm not using the anyconnect or web VPN features at this point.  Which image do you think would fit the bill the best?  Any
pointers would be appreciated.

Thank you
Scott
