Out of necessity, I have recently moved /var to another partition. I tar'ed up the directory and then untar'ed it on the new partition. This morning, I cannot get xfmail to open /var/spool/mail/user saying that it cannot lock the file. I figure the problem results from the movement of /var.
Also, when I run dselect, I often see the message: Update-menus: Cannot remove lockfile /var/run/update-menus.pid which may come from the same cause. Any suggestions on solving these troubles? What are the appropriate permisions for /var/spool/mail/user? Thanks for any assistance, Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
