Fetch the current INDEX as well, that happens when there isn't a proper

The command (it's portsnap wrapped up with start & finish time messages
that can be run from cron) has worked perfectly correctly for weeks,
with no problems. What I'm interested in is why it failed this time when
it seemed to behave no differently from any time before, with no error
messages.
BTW, Handbook contents: 5 The X Window System
Methinks you mean Chapter 4, which I'm familiar with, ditto portsnap. I
switched to using it rather than csup months ago, and it's been
faultless until now. I probably should have copied cperciva on the
initial post.
