The best way to do this is to run the emerge in a screen session, then you can do "screen -r" from the SSH session to see what's going on. If you have already started the emerge from a normal terminal, you can view the progress with "genlop -c". Emerge genlop if you don't already have it. -- Neil Bothwick "Bother," said Pooh, as he was given another bad script.
