Jean-Crishtophe,

we use Cyrus on Solaris, but at the moment, haven’t used Murder -
so can’t offer advice etc on that one directly.

We’ve got a couple of big projects under way at the moment
for some customers - once we’ve got those sorted, I can try to
get a test setup going and see what happens - but it would be
in a couple of weeks time at the earliest…
