campbell@redsox.UUCP (Larry Campbell) sez:
] The map file u.dmk.1 contains the following line on my system (in the entry

] 
] 	diku(LOCAL), dkibt(DIRECAILY),
] 
] This makes pathalias unhappy.  Is this a global problem, or did the file

Admittely I'm only a hop and a jump from Mr Campbell (Newton is just outside
Boston), but the file is scrunged here. If you have uuhosts you can check
real fast: just do a 'uuhosts -f dkuug'. What about the west coast??

What is a little more worrying is that dkuug appears to have it's neighbours
in alphabetical order. However following the offending line is a big gap
from 'd' to 'n', as if a block of the file just vanised into /dev/null. Is
it possible to get the map file for a particular area reposted?
