Alexander,

Thanks for the feedback. I saw a problem on another site. I suspect 
something is not generic enough in the diagnose command parser. I add 
Cedric to CC, as he is not register on LCG-ROLLOUT.

Probably, it'd be a great help if you could send him (let me in CC but 
probably this is not necessary to send the whole list) a copy of your 
maui.cfg and the output of the following commands :

- diagnose -r
- diagnose -n

Cheers,

Michel
