fmodel status?

	Backing down to 2.0.5 is probably the best quick solution. I'm not 
aware of a bug report on this against 2.0.6 although Carter may have one. 
	A quick look in the argus-clients-2.0.6.fixes.1 source also doesn't
turn up a how to, where did you find that? However the 2.0.6 "man 5 ragator"
man page may be instructive, in that it indicates 2.0.6 wants an ip that is 
missing in your model (which may not have been required in 2.0.5, I don't have 
a 2.0.5 instance around at the moment) and the next 2 are masks (and 0.0.0.0
won't match anything although I doubt that will cause the syntax error thats 
more likely the no protocol) so you may need to rework your models to match 
changed syntax in the new version. Hope that helps some, otherwise you will
need to wait for Carter to get some time!
