On some machines, yes. On others, no. I agree that there's seldom a reason to reboot. I happen to think that having screwed up /var royally and wanting to make sure that everything is ok afterwards is one of them. Sure, you don't have to reboot to do that - but that's the easiest method of being sure you've got everything. <mike -- Mike Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
