________________________________________________________________________________ I have had this problem when attempting to mount the /cdrom directory while I, or one of my shells, or someone else's cursor was in the directory I was trying to mount. Usually I was the one in the directory that I was attempting to mount. Hope this helps :-) -- 0 0 " http://www.netaxs.com/~ldc/ _______ooO ~ Ooo_______________________________________________ LeRoy D.
