Giancarlo, I will probably try 5.5. If that doesn't work, will hunt a mirror still offering 4.9.
Any idea of the root of this problem? I mean: What could have changed on the code so that it got messed? I will try tcpdump'ing with both machines and comparing results to see... Maybe changing ethernet card, cloning MAC-Address, etc could make it work still in 5.4?
