  Ok, now everything work fine.

  1/ I can't reproduce the deletion of etc/bbstored.conf. I've try to 
reproduce all my old configuration, but the config file was never deleted 
with a single line kill... Sorry... Perhaps it was a dream ? Strange ! Now 
it's ok so, it doesn't matter. If I have this problem again I'll write on 
this mailing list.

  2/ The certificate error was, of course, a personal mistake. Yesterday I 
use "sign-server" to sign the client certificate, and no "sign" option 
only. So... Of course... Problem... Now it's ok...

  Thanks a lot for everybody...
  And send to trash all your g++ v3.3.2 !
