OK, we cannot help in any way with TNG. Below I'm talking about only 2.2

There should be no patches necessary if you are using the cvs version.

2.0.7 will not work.
3.0 is a development version, could do anything on any particular day.

With the updated kernel I trust ?

Hmm.. I assume you are aware of the problem we have identified with 'domain
admin users'. It seems to be ignored. Now, do you have 'root' as a member
of 'users'. At present, it seems best if you have 'domain admin group =
@adm' and make root a member of 'adm'. No, the actual group chosen is not
important but using 'users' seems a bit extreme.

If the attention to 'domain admin group' does not help, please try using
only the config file as shown on the HowTo with only localization changes.
It never fails to amaze me when people claim to have followed the HowTo to
the letter and then quote a config file five time as long. If there is some
parameter there that is producing the differences between your system and
mine, we may be able to track it down by getting yours working in  basic
mode and then slowly reintroducing the suspect parameters. 

Thats alpha software for you.
