Cool, thanks for the info!

As an aside, I was able to temporarily workaround the problem by changing:

from:
modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 1)

to:
modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 0)

Ah, ok - so next logical question ( which has probably been seen many times already? ):
is there a 0.9.x version/port of the 'ser_mysql.sh' to postgres available anywhere?

Also - approximately how usable is the 0.10.x series at the moment ( for a non-production /
experimental server )? "mostly usable/stable"?, "somewhat usable/stable"? "...good luck"?

Thanks again!
