Oh, the villian is a given. It's just trying to figure out which of the townsfold was not given the love they needed as a child. :) > > What kernel version are you running on your test machine, ftp server, > and mail relays?

All packages current as of today. The mail relay is the first to use the 2.4.7 stock kernel however...Egads! Could that be it? Our hero, blinded by triumph so neigh at hand that he didn't realize, just didn't remember, that in giving into the need for speed he didn't roll his own kernel and has been bitten by a well known configuration error bespoke of so many times in the past? Oh, the agony, the sorrow of having overlooked something so...so...clumsy! Gasp! Salt poured into the fresh wounds! A quick search locating the offending command and the /proc directive to disable it prove it the culprit! Oh, our hero will need to strive valiantly in the future to overcome the stigma of this encounter with his Nemesis. This severly hinders his chance to win the girl's heart that he has courted for so long! Oh the tragedy! But much thanks to you, friend! May you want naught for a helping hand and good company. You, Sir, are a gentleman.
