Ok, I'll call and make them reset it. I take it this is something you have
to do physically to the box? And about the random mode, is this also
something you have to do physically? I only have access to the linux box by
ssh that it is connected to, everything else I have to call inn and ask some
IT people to do for me, so it's important that I tell them everything they
need to do, so I don't loose another day :)
Again, thanks for your help.
