Hi,

I know that if I change the global pool in any way or add/delete static
translations, I will experience random problems in translations.  These
problems can occur within the the range of the global pool, as well as the
range for my static mappings.  The only way I've found to work around these
problems is to "clear xlate".  I tried at one point to "clear xlate global
x.x.x.x" or "clear xlate inside x.x.x.x" in order to only clear the changed
range, but this doesn't seem to work.  "clear xlate" seems to be the only
fix.  

Is this what you are experiencing?
