I am, but it's better to ask the list first. $ which bconsole /usr/local/sbin/bconsole $ pkg_info -W /usr/local/sbin/bconsole /usr/local/sbin/bconsole was installed by package bacula-client-5.0.1 $ bconsole is part of the client, not part of the server. -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
