I believe I've reported this problem to you and support@bitmover.com several times. There's something in BK that refuses to work when it can't contact lease.openlogging.org, regardless of whether you just renewed the lease or not. This keeps biting me when I try to use BK disconnected from the internet (usually while travelling). This problem is certainly my single biggest headache with BK since it means I can't go through my backlog of email and build the SCSI BK tree when I'm travelling (which is often the only time I have available for doing it). My current version is bk 3.2.3 but it's been a problem on all prior versions I've used as well. James
