Wrong and wrong; there are definitely clues at the helm, and it 
sure appears to be a user from offered evidence. As a matter of
fact the OWNER and OPERATOR of the site said as much in mail that
was forwarding in response to your first thrashing about on the

Repeated assertions of beliefs does not transmogrify them into
facts. People who insist on making nanog [or some other public 
fourm] their first stop on an troubleshooting chain will find 
themselves wildly disappointed. In this case, see the FAQ for
