Strange, I can use expire=20 without problems. What OS does that happen
on (uname -a)? Could you send the config-file verbatim (privately)?

Please do NOT edit the copy of the file you send, to weed out passwords,
rather use

    grep -v pass </etc/leafnode/config >/tmp/config-without-passwords

then gzip (or bzip2 or compress or lzop) and mail me the resulting file
privately (not to the list).
