Hi Steve,
        Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. As I said, they are not busy
        machines so I hadn't noticed any paging activity at all. 
        Two more kernels, 2.2.17 and a 2.4 are in my test area so
        I guess I should upgrade once again sigh......
        I would like to jump straight to 2.4 but the first release 
        issues always scare me (Not just Linux but any software)
