Man, I'm surprised everyone hasn't pounced on this one yet. Depending on your filesystem...I've had pretty good success using recover or gtkrecover on ext2 filesystems. YMMV based on how many bits your hard drive is pushing around...The more activity, the less chance your data is still intact. Crontabs live in /var/spool/cron/crontabs on my box. You might also scroll back in your xterm and see if you have a copy in that buffer somewhere, that's saved me a few times... Good luck. -- Dustin Douglas -------------- Free The Lapland Six!!! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
