D'oh! I performed my testing with (oddly enough) the latest 2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA snapshot. For some reason I don't have the current 1.2.2 available. Well, that makes my previous post a bit useless... I'll certainly try on the newest 1.2.3 snapshots. I may be putting this unit into production for a personal project and would like to have it most stable. 2.0 is rather impressive but I get the impression that it's not ready for primetime yet... :-) Tim Nelson Systems/Network Support Rockbochs Inc.
