The CUI bboard daemon never shows any errors in the log file, and I can't think of anything that's changed. I'd say it happens 5-10 times/week. So, the questions are: Why does a bboard post sometimes come up as "hidden"? Is there anything I can do to track down the problem? (Oh, I suppose I could run the bboard daemon with debugging on.... yuck!) Bob
