I renamed the ez-ipupdate binary on my IPCOP machine (which is the one Nick 
Rout posted a few days ago) to ez-ipupdate.bak, and then installed the 
official "fixes6". However there is a considerable difference in size between 
the new (official IPCOP) binary, and the one Nick compiled (now called 
ez-ipupdate.bak), as follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin # ls ez* -l
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        56792 Dec 18 16:15 ez-ipupdate
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       167315 Dec 19 19:23 ez-ipupdate.bak

One is 57KB, the other 167KB. I can't help but be a little curious about this, 
especially as Nick makes the source of the larger one sound slightly dubious. 
Perhaps you did something like statically link it when you compiled it Nick?

I don't suppose you could mail me the source you compiled that binary from, if 
you still have it, could you Nick? (obviously I don't want to grab the one 
off the mirror you linked as it could've been changed by now). I'd be 
interested to run a diff over it (against the source for the same release off 
the official site). 

Cheers,
Gareth
