>From a quick look over the safe_asterisk script, it looks like a better option since it squirrels away your core files for you so you can do a better job of figuring out what went wrong. init was a top of the head type answer to try and point out how many tools already exist to fulfill the problem. I added it in the same manner I answered how to get ps to output the asterisk entries without the grep being included. Sometimes little tricks like that don't get passed from person to person unless you are sitting over the shoulder of someone who uses those shortcuts. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
