Could that be because it's the linux version? I've never seen a corrupted
windows version here and I've used Irex for at least 12, maybe 15 years
now. In fact, if you leave the configs alone once they're working
properly, Irex continues to run for weeks and months without interuption.

I don't, because there is no need.

I had Irex stop working lately, but it was due to a switch being changed
that was the cause. It now sits in the 'tray' waiting for a connect on the
24555 port that it is listening to. That won't happen until I find the
password to the router to make a change there.
