Oh, ok. So I didn't upset anyone, hopefully :-)

I am, and wouldn't trade it for the world! I run Owl exclusively on my
home machines (ranging from a Soekris 4801 firewall to a big dual
athlon-mp with lots of disks file server) and couldn't be happier with
the ease of use, performance and peace of mind they provide.
As for my company, alas, I don't get to dictate policy, otherwise all
boxes would be migrated to Owl.

In a fit of insomnia last night, I ended up trying just that, and then
someone else helped me off-list, so mission accomplished. It took nigh
onto 10 minutes to perform surgery, plus another 10 to compile and
boot. It ended up being much easier than I antecipated, and all is
working now.
Thanks, everybody!
