I am aware that not everybody has /var/log/syslog in heavily customized installs, but if it's there, it's usually occasionally written to. And using that is certainly faster than "find most recently modified file on all filesystems" :-) -- vbi -- featured product: ClamAV Antivirus - http://www.clamav.net/
