I tried, and on the first 3 times, everything was OK. Of course, since 
the problem was erratic in the first place, it will take a bit more
time to really test it -- but at least the /norsh doesn't seem to
hurt. (by the way: what does it mean/do, 'no rsh' ?? But no need to 
explain; if you don't feel like it, don't bother!) .

Thanks!
