Hi
I had the same problem a week back, it was that my rc.local file was
done wrong (the how-to isn't great in explaining it). I fixed it by
re-installing. But when I checked the rc.local file, I noticed what I
was doing wrong. I can't remember the changes right now (I'm not even
at my machine now), but if you send your rc.local file I should be
able to remember it.
