I wish that IBM had something equivalent to the Linux "inotify" system. That is an API which allows a daemon (such as "icrond") to monitor one or more files or directory for changes. The "icrond" is a daemon somewhat akin to "icron" which makes it easier to say "if this file/directory changes run this command/script". > Regards > Ron T > > -- Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless. -- Sinclair Lewis Maranatha! <>< John McKown ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
