If the problem is with Netscape 4 then they already know about itA few months back I was trying to get netscape to use "Play" to play wav file sounds....I had the exact same problem. I tried everything (including using "; & ' and a cast of other chgaricters) in the definition as to trick netscape into working I had no luck at all and never thinking it could be a bug in bash reported it as a bug in netscapes bug system just thinking now... maybe if I strace netscape....it will show what the actual command line that it passes is...hmm... but if it works with ash....I can see no reason as a temporary fix to change sh to link to ash (ill try it again when I get home) -Steve -- -=Signature has been removed because it made an unfair comparison between NT 4 and Linux =- replacement: (ok I admit...I am bored..its a slow day at work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$fortune -o Anything more than 3 shakes is for fun. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
