Dear Alexander,

thanks for your review of the MSF, it will be helpful for the community.

btw, i don't really understand your main goal in all your recent mails...
Do you actually want to completely test all modules of the actual 
version of the msf? (if so, -good luck-, and remember that a new version 
is coming... remember also that a specific application is now open to 
report bugs http://metasploit.com/dev/trac/newticket )
Do you test exploits with the msf for learning purposes? (if so, i would 
recommend to spend more time with quite recent sploits than with 
"jurassic" ones. furthermore, you should try to use your ruby skills to 
edit the modules and use the documentation to have a better 
understanding of things)

Sorry to, actually, don't help you much with your specific problem.
Did you trace the things with wireshark or so?...

Best regards
/JA - Independant
