Without knowing the structure of GDBM and DB_File (s) I would also guess a
sparse file.

If a db_file is somehow corrupt, would it still open? I tracked down another
error message for the failure to open one of the db_file (s) and googled that
corruption was the probable culprit. I believe I ran sa-learn --sync & sa-learn
--force-expire on the file and the problem went away.

I don't believe I have db_verify installed. Do you know of docs that cover the
maintenance of db_file (s). What do I need add to cron to prevent future
problems?
