Thanks Mat for this answer,

The only problem here is that I used a recently downloaded pack for the update 
and reading the esg on the issue on Powerlink the patch is supposed to be in 
the newest version already (Build 583 and up). Didn't have a chance to check 
what I really have at the moment as downgrading to 7.4.2 made everything work 
again, except from the dedup stuff, where 7.4.2 is not very happy with a 4.1 
Avamar server, sigh....

Best
Dag
