This action is normal if that is a UNIX type function which does a "fork()" and has the "parent" terminate. An example of this is the FTPD server. The FTPD started task terminates with no messages, but has "fork()'ed" another FTPD1 (or some other numeric suffix) task. Try doing a: "D A,BBOS001*" to see if there there are other address spaces which start with that name. If so, then the BBOS001 likely did a "fork()" and terminated with the "child" doing the actual processing. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
