Sure, I'll strip it back as much as absolutely possible - given the
switching that I'm doing between the two instances via iptables, I can
remove the ssl_crtd config without any interruptions in normal network
activity. I'll remove all the ICAP services as well, and trim the ACLs
down as much as possible - I'll have to coordinate with my boss on
those though, so it might take a little while to sort those out :)

Thanks,

Nathan.
