Hello Russ,
thanks for your help - cnfs cycbuffs really works after repartitioning
according to your instructions :-).

And what about inn 2.3 ? Should I immediately upgrade my working 2.2.3 
installation with 2.3 when is was being released ? And what is inn 2.4
(some news sites reports `inn 2.4prexxx...' while telnetting to port
119) ? 

Thanks again,
