I had missed the version reported in your original complaint. I haven't yet been examining or compiling u2.10.12, so I don't really have anything to say on this point. I suspect the daemonization was either accidentally removed due to changes to start-up code or deliberately removed for testing purposes. In either case, it'll certainly be back before .12 comes anywhere near beta. -- Kevin L. Mitchell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
