might not have root access to it. The file system's being full would be
another possibility. If none of these things checks out and you don't get more
useful diagnostics by running rundig with more "v"s, then try running rundig or
the htdig command which it calls under a diagnostic program which displays
sub-routine calls. For Solaris that would be truss. For earlier versions of
SunOS, that would be trace. I don't know what it would be under HP Unix.


It's a local filesystem, not full. Even -vvv didn't gave other output.
I don't know the equivalant to truss, but I will google for it. Might the output of gdb help?
