Different shells have slightly different syntaxes for this. So my first guess is that your shell is different from the one where 2>&1 usually works. Try > echo $SHELL to find out. Try switching from [ba]sh to [t]csh or the other way around. As in /bin/bash or /bin/csh. Also, I don't think 2&>1 is right, but if the above doesn't work, you could try it. -Chuck _______________________________________________ Webware-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-devel
