> Thanks for all the patches!

Absolutely!  I hope to have time to wade through them soon.  Right now they
are all in my mailbox waiting for me to finish work on a server.

Vincenzo, to answer your question, yes I had the HD on my laptop fail
earlier this year.  This time it was a SCSI drive on a public server.  All
told, we've have four drive failures in the past 18 months.  From what the
drive recovery folks told me when I was talking to them about my laptop
drive, their business is way up.  Drives are not nearly as reliable as they
had been.  Density is up, speed is up, but so is the failure rate.
Fortunately, the new server has a six drive hot swappable RAID, and we've
already purchased a spare drive for the cage.

Its been an interesting week.  Yesterday we had a T-storm frell our cable
modem.
