Hi Ron!

We had a similar problem. The solution was, that on installation the
configuration file ThisCell got overwritten with a wrong cell, because
the installer (debian) wrongly assumed it to be tu-graz.ac.at instead
of itp.tugraz.at and it overwrote the correct info.

Hope this helps,

Christian
