I suspect the problem is that how ever useful NFS is (I couldn't live without it), it is one gigantic messy kludge (from what I read), so this kind of problem doesn't surprise me. > > May I re-ask: > > > BTW: are you still planning for a trip to Munich this summer? Yes, sorry I forgot to answer. It is unlikely that I will make it to Munich this summer, but it is still quite possible this year. Originally, my idea was to take a two week course in German then to complete it with practice by going to Germany. Unfortunately, the course occurred in Oct (if I remember right) after my first back operation, which was a total failure, and I had to return home after only one (very painful) week. I subsequently (in Nov) had a second back operation which corrected the problem. However, my German learning somehow came to a halt, which is not too good, and I never rescheduled my trip to Munich. One of the many other big surprise events in my life is that my son-in-law getting married in Norway in August. That plus the fact that I was away from home more than 3 months this year means I am pretty burned out and haven't worked much on the Munich trip. The whole story is much longer but I doubt the details really interest anyone. Bottom line: if you guys are still interested, my wife would be interested in making a trip to Munich in early December for the "marché de Noël" (Christmas shopping). I would *very* much enjoy meeting as many German users as possible, but my German speaking abilities are rather poor at the moment ... Best regards, Kern Using Tomcat but need to do more?
