Perfect! I hardly wait to get the device!

When I turn the plug on, in fact?
I suspect Attos tried to connect to wrong device name, or it was
on some older freebsd version? Also, there were more than one version
of plug, with maybe different hardware parts.
Not related to freebsd: forum posts point to error after changing
root password on the plug. Someone experienced it? I see no reason
to have any problem on default ubuntu 9.04 with simple "passwd".
Almost all posters made "apt-get update first".
Thank you all for reply. Best regards
Zoran
