What's most interesting, I find, is that this machine get very little use, it's primarily a backup of a web site on an isp's server, and occasionally I'll copy files I'm working on to it via windoze network neighborhood. I rarely actually log into the box, then only as user, so even more rarely use the su account. I have always symlinked /var and /tmp to /usr/var and /usr/tmp on my setups. -- Chip Wiegand computer Services Simrad, Inc To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
