I have already posted the (rather long) story to bsdforums.org. Reposting including /var/log/messages through copy/paste is bound to become a linewrap disaster, so if interested (I could need the help!) please be so kind to read the full problem description and questions there. Sorry about this, I normally would no do this but it is a LOT of text and, admittedly after posting to the nice guys at the bsdforum I realised taht the overlap between them and people on the mailinglists isn't that large and so I thought I might better post here as well. I don't seem to able to specify a reply-to in this Yahoo thing, which I never used before, so please if replying to the list, also CC to danny@ricin.com Here's the URL: http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2864 Many thanks!
