Hi Barry,

Thanks a lot for your replying so quickly. The VM I'm using is the one 
stored in debian 64-bit.ova which I found 
http://www.statmt.org/moses/RELEASE-2.1/vm/. Is it possible the moses 
installation on this machine is outdated? Is there a way I can check the 
version?

Anyway, if that vm contains an outdated installation I'll download the 2.1 
deb version you provided a link for. Thanks a lot for this!

Have a nice evening
Franz

P.S. Does anybody know if there is a plug-in or whatever allowing to 
establish a conntection between Moses and Trados Studio or memoQ?
