It's attached (rbd.txt.tgz -tried sending it on my last email but apparently
didn't get thru.)

Here are the current_mirror files:

-rw-------    1 root     root            0 Oct 30 04:30
current_mirror.2003-10-30T04:30:01-04:00.data
-rw-------    1 root     root            0 Oct 31 04:30
current_mirror.2003-10-31T04:30:00-04:00.data
-rw-------    1 root     root            0 Oct 31 04:30
current_mirror.2003-10-31T04:30:01-04:00.data

Apparently some Halloween ghoul messed with it. :)  Is it possible to just
delete two of them and continue as before?  Which ones to delete, though.
