Hi Dan. When you reinstalled the source, did you prep it? If not, that might cause you some problems. I'm sorta' throwing together a "tute" page for this, so if you want me to send it to you let me know and I'll send you the link (it's at a temporary location right now, but will be made "publicly available" once I get time to set the new domain up and get the pages moved over).
