Thanks Carl !!!!

This is how it has to be, good product with good support ! :D

The passwort realy went in the passwort file you mentioned. After removing the passwort i could run dpkg --configure bubba-horde and dpkg --configure bubba-backend without problems.

Best regards,

Ton.

Hope it helps . . .
