( unix 3.5) Although, it does create some annoying problems with the windowing done by the telephone manager. The telephone manager does not consider itself active, unless someone is logged into the original console window. (or at least thats what i believe it wants). I have a question/problem. Since I am running several getty's from my console. And the telephone manager uses the original console as its base. Is there anyway to convince the telephone manager to always use the same "phone book/directory" and the same history file without having to log the same account into the original console window. Another question I have is, is there anyway to get rid or hide all the Notes/Filcabinet/Wastebasket,etc directories that are put all over the place. Is this from the wmgr, or the smgr? Making them "." directories would be acceptable. Somewhere out of mind, Roscoe Rush ncrpcd!rmr
