You want net.rec.all to expand to net.rec.ski and net.rec.baseball.scores, and so on -- well, the last time I tried it, /usr/cak/* did not expand to /usr/cak/Mail/mbox and beyond; * (like all) only works one level at a time. I have to say something like /usr/cak/*/*/* and that explicitly gets me things three layers down, and not the stuff in between. chris
