Hello Wilfred,

It IS what I wanted to test. With earlier versions I noted that binkd crasched
when the config reloaded. t even crached when at the transistions to and from
DST. When tracing errors, always change look for the minimum chabge that will
provoke the error. Don't change many things at the same time, because then you
still don't know what triggered the error. In this case I choose to ony change
the date/time stamp as the minimum change that caused binkd to crash in
previous versions.

True, but that would be /another/ problem than the one I am tracing.


Cheers, Michiel
