That's just another reason to not reboot those machines ;) I hate to join in the flamefest, but if that's the case, you need to find a different admin for those servers. If a professional admin can't ensure the server they run is going to boot, they need some remedial help, some process control, or a good beating. Sure, mistakes happen, but the methodology of change control for *nix machines isn't that hard. -j -- Jamie Lawrence jal@jal.org "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." -John F.
