Thanks, Bob - and the other question which is why did it stop working only for
some functions (mail, messenger), and on only two PC's out 5? That's why I
worded my opening sentence the way I did - one other thing I've noticed this
am, is that I'm getting slpd errors on shutdown - well, it just says it
failed to shut it down - I had never heard of this daemon, but I read a
little about it, and on cursory inspection, it seems like it 'could' be
related -- need to keep looking - I just posted this in case anyone else was
having the same issue, on the chance it could be related to recent updates...
