Ray, As long as we're out in left field: Could someone outfox it if they did something nasty like make a unix link to VOC's inode (unix ln or ln -s command)? How about less nasty like an F-pointer not called "VOC" to the current or a foreign account's VOC. Or opened via OPENPATH. In other words, how does it know it really is a real VOC file? You say 'two of the "reserved" eight file units': What if you have 13 different accounts? Is that 13x8=104 files that won't get rotated? (Fewer if you share dictionaries.) cds P.S. Do you Aussie's have a left field or is it mostly cricket there? I grew up in Alberta & we played a sandlot hybrid of baseball + cricket: used baseball gloves, any kind of ball we could find, bats varied. 2 batters like cricket and bowlers were more like pitchers. Rotated positions & batting like scrub baseball. 3 outs to an inning, as many innings as our moms allowed. Lots of high-pitched 10 year olds arguing fervently about applying the infield fly rule to Cricket. Mostly we just played hockey in the gravel. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
