Am I missing something here? I misunderstood, it was late, I was outta my mind. Then I don't know. There's a specific mention of the possibility of the opposite problem, but I don't see much that even might relate to the one you're having. There are several warnings about things not working with ETRN or ODMR. Not specific to your problem, but related to retrieval. And there's a specific thing about limits and such in the rc file. Other than those I don't see anything that might cause the problem. I used a similar setup once and had to flush everything with fetchall to clear out the server and it flooded me with things I'd already seen, but that I'd only seen once. -- Remember to proofread. You may have something out. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
