Not really.... May I recommend: ( echo "Messages log\n" cat /var/log/messages echo if which ip 2> /dev/null ; then ip addr show echo ip route show else ifconfig -a echo netstat -rn fi echo if which ipchains 2> /dev/null ; then ipchains -L -v -n else iptables -L -v -n fi echo if which ipmasqadm 2> /dev/null ; then ipmasqadm mfw -L -n echo ipmasqadm portfw -n -l echo cat /proc/net/ip_masq/autofw echo fi ) > /tmp/sysdata.txt This has several advantages: 1. Single file at the end for details - /tmp/sysdata.txt - just attach and mail. If you use "matt" (new package to attach files to mail!) you can even mail it right from the box. 2. Testing for existance of programs allows clean execution in even the most spartan (or odd) environments. No ip? No problem. No ipchains? No problem.... 3. Using a single file saves some space (constant redirections and filenames). Of course, with all the testing (using which) the end result is more bytes - but it's worth it, I think. -- David Douthitt UNIX Systems Administrator HP-UX, Unixware, Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
