Yes, with another number!

There's also the possibility that the wrong r3bfuser.cfg is being 
edited, or that r3dfuser.cfg is edited next to the real r3bfuser.cfg. In 
my experience over many use-cases the best approach is discipline and 
checking the data. And avoiding stressful situations with people 
breathing over your shoulder :)

Yes.
