No, I have no running smbd in that box (samba is available but not running). By changing the option in ./conf.pl which translated Upper -> Lowercase made the problem dissaper so I'm satisfied now :) ... But I'm curious how you think Samba could be related to this problem, I mean Samba is not listening on port 143 (there we have UW-IMAPd) Regards / FM __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
