There's a couple things more you can try: 1) Run the command "strings `which htmerge` | grep sort" and see if the pathname that comes up for the sort program is the same one that SORT_PROG is defined as in htmerge/Makefile. If it's not, there's something that went wrong in the compilation phase, or else you have more than one htmerge binary installed and rundig may not be running the latest one. Also, check what path is reported by "which sort". It should be the same path again. If there are any discrepancies in the paths, it may also be that you have more than one sort program on your system, and the one that htmerge is using is misbehaving. 2) Go to the directory where your db.wordlist file is, and run the command "sort -T `pwd` db.wordlist > db.wordlist.tmp" and see if you get the same ps error. The command above is quite similar to how htmerge calls sort, so theoretically it should fail the same way if you are indeed running the same program as htmerge runs. If it does fail, try without the -T dir option, i.e. "sort db.wordlist > db.wordlist.tmp", and if that works it may be your sort program doesn't like the -T option, as the BSD sort program (see FAQ 5.9), and so you'd have to avoid using the TMPDIR environment variable in rundig. If sort fails in both of these cases, obviously you need to replace it with a sort program that works. > According to [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > > I looked into the file and the SORT_PROG in the LOCAL_DEFINES is > > /usr/bin/sort.
