There have been a lot of changes lately. I think this is just one of them. I may just change it back to uucp and add myself to the group. I'm not sure about how that will affect my UPS that connects to the serial port though. It didn't like the uucp group either. We may be playing ring around the group here. :/ I still haven't tried the others though. I'm trying to give everyone a chance to reply and see what all options there are available. ;-) Thanks for the info. At least mine wasn't the only one that got changed.
