Hi David, yes we can and we know that these two values need to be in sync. The strange thing with this is as I said, that everything worked fine with our 2.1rc3 installation and we have exported (part of) the config-tree and user-tree to XML and imported it in 2.1.5, so that's why we don't understand why it isn't working anymore.
