Chris,

Can you send me the content of your modprobe.conf please?

About the SSH problem, can you tell me if /home is mounted on the clients?

Also note that the problem related to the package selection has been fixed but 
i still need to generate new binary packages.

Thanks a lot for your report!

Regards,
