[BlueOnyx:21124] Re: What to do?

[Lewis Gardner]

Dirk,

Thanks! That does it but only until APF restarts, which appears to 
happen about every 10 minutes.

I have reset blocks and added my IP to the whitelist as described below

Due to this and other issues I'm migrating to a fresh install of 5209R.

Thanks very much for your and Brian's help on this.


later - Lewis
