Last update for today @ 16:30 h UT: Good point for me : I think I have found the cause of the instabilities and cured them. Bad point for you Howard : It seems to be the latest version of OCS (2.31).

Sorry I was wrong in my last post : the Basic configuration that is OK and perfectly stable is with OCS version 2.1c. I did'nt update it because it is operating perfectly.
