[root@coyote src]# uname -r 2.6.16.11 Anyplace you are using a bz2, replace it with the .gz version and see if you still have the problem. I'm not betting one way or the other, but it sure tastes like it to me. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
