Yes. I have had this problem in the past. It happens when your ciscos loose NTP timesync. I have fixed it in two ways. a) I run multiple local NTP servers b) I use Postgres 7.3 as my backend DB. I have an embeded regexp perl function that strips out the asterix if there is one before inserting into the DB field. Cheers Peter - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
