There doesn't seem to be a -1 node in the sl_listen on the origin or
the subscriber.

I've removed the second set that was still visible on the subscriber
from the sl_set table, however I'm still getting an event in the log
where it tries to "copy_set 2" and comes back with the error "set 2
not found in runtime configuration".

Any idea on how I remove / stop this?

I tried to subscribe a new set with a new table in it and for some
reason it failed with the error mentioned. The slony logs show that
slony was periodically trying to subscribe on the subscriber.

Seeing as I couldn't remove it from pgAdmin, I went in and ran a
slonik script to drop the set, however I didn't try to unsubscribe it
with slonik first. So is there a chance it's come about from me not
unsubscribing first?

What's the law on mixing the use of pgAdmin and slonik to administer
slony?

Thanks
Glyn
