Anyway, what the script was: while (1) do mkdir 1; cd 1 end Minus some shell syntax. this is it. However, on newer OS's this won't work. I think it has a minfree on the inodes as well, or some thing like that. later jco -- "BSD the strongest Operating System avaible today without a prescription." John C.
