Robert & Alex, I don't remember why I built a kodos package back in may, but I don't think it gave me any trouble. If it helps, I threw my info file on the web. I don't think it will help, but just in case :)

I haven't had a bunch of time, but I'm still working on this. These particular suggestions haven't magically fixed things, but they are helping. I'm going to also refer to the denyhosts.info since that package is also originally authored by Phil Schwartz and I'm guessing that the porting may therefore have similarities. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
