Can someone summarize what this problem is?

I know that in my case owserver takes a while to start. It sounds like 
the same problem as "late-starting owservers" but I cannot seem to find 
the February 1st report that Klas mentions.

Based on Paul's comment below, I take it that the problem has been 
identified and will be fixed in the next release?

This has been a problem for me because my owfs start script cannot 
execute owserver and owfs in succession because owserver goes daemon 
immediately but does not really start servicing requests, and then owfs 
fails to find a working owserver and then quits. So, after each reboot I 
need to run owfs manually. Fortunately I don't restart my server often.

I'll look into that owexist trick that Paul mentions, though it does not 
seem to be perfect because it would suspend the boot process for a 
little bit.

Cheers,

Eloy Paris.-
