Hi Roland,

As I said to MJ, I won't be following this up. For what should be 
obvious reasons, I won't try LAM on our production environment and I 
won't set up a test lab just to file a bug report for a tool I won't use 
again. Incidentally, I never tried it on a Windows machine, only on Linux.

regards,
John
