I too remember finding a solution for this a long time ago but can't find it now. What do you want to access this section of the file as? If it's a filesystem that you want to mount then the filesystem will ignore the tail of the file which isn't format as part of it anyway. Perl ioctl shouldn't be too hard these days, and will probably allow your program to be much easier to install. --Amos ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
