Bogdan, thanks for the reply. I'm don't quite understand. I'm using db_mode 1, which the docs say writes all updates immediately to the database. A 'openserctl ul show' still shows cached entries though. Why? Is db_mode 1 supposed to cache at all? Which db_mode should I use so that I can have two or more OpenSER systems safely accessing the same database?

Douglas.
