No, but it would either be something running when you are shutting down your system (ps should tell which processes you have running), being executed by init as part of shutdown or startup (timestamp of the file would be able to tell you which). You could then manually try to start or stop the services (binary search) or string the (binaries) involved to see if any haev a "errs" in them. Or even better, check if someone else have already seen the problem, a quick usenet search revealed: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=/errs&hl=en&rnum=3&selm=997463277.452.52.camel%40work /Allan -- Allan M.
