   That was what I needed !

   As you can tell, I am a "newby" to this modular version.

   A fixfiles ran to help the DBUS issue, "fixed" me all right, the 
vsftpd daemon is (*was*) kaput. (It worked fine *before* the fixfiles) I 
have created a working policy to resurrect the service. Being as I had 
not changed anything, besides running "yum update" on a virgin install, 
I suspect FC5 users are currently one "fixfiles" away from replicating 
my dilemma.. (I replicated this on another virgin system, as a sanity test.)

  So, just a FYI, heads up, and a Thank You!

PPS: Any suggestions on recovering those DBUS messages, would be 
*greatly* appreciated...  it is kind of hard to audit, without an audit 
trail.

   Say, the person who did that work didn't previously work for Diebold, 
did they ?    :-P
