Hi Todd,

thanks for all your help and patience... :))

The recursive(recursive(recursive).problem.).problem).problem has
been solved by rebooting my PC (due to the new kernel) and restarting
the tablet PC.

Now I am fighting against dhcpd...as sson as I want to start that
beast its telling me that dhcpd.ldap is missing. This was not 
installed (at least as an example) by emerge. I have no idea what
is to get into that file.

I will check create_ap...may be it is more intelligent than me in 
writing config-files ;)

But unfortunately I have to stop my journey here for today...it is
late here (9:00 pm) and I have to get out early tommorrow (4:00 am).

But /I want/ to get this running finally.
We will see. 
As soon I have something new, I will post more of the contents
of my harddisk ;)

Best regards and thanks again! 8)
Meino
