Thanks everybody for "encouraging" answers so far. I am in Vietnam, and the box is a dedicated server in the US :( There was nearly nothing installed, when I got it about two months ago, and I installed several packages - all of them downloaded from the original sites, in order to be sure to get the latest version. Will go to bed now and pray..... I still can telnet to the box. Maybe somebody finds an idea what to do... Will see at my eMail tomorrow. Good Night!
