If it happens once, it means check_perms has done it's job. If you run check_perms -f several times with the same result every time, it means all those names are symlinks to the real directories, and check_perms sees the group of the symlink as 'root' and attempts to change it, but this sets the group of the target which is the only thing that matters anyway. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
