While you're at it, you might as well: rm -f /usr/spool/uucp/LCK.* There sure wasn't *ANY* uucp activity while the system was down, so you might as well remove them all while you're there. Terminal lock files (LCK..tty??) are especially critical; removing them at reboot often means uucp knows the ports are available for use that much sooner. Sites with heavy uucp use will find things just a little bit easier, especially if they also go down 6 nights a week for backup (as mine do). -- Will Edgington | Phone: (303) 871-2081 (work), 722-5738 (home) Computing Services Staff | USnail: BA 469, 2020 S.
