Ah, you're right. It's when I execute a command from the shell that the digit is added to the end of the "jobname". I.e. the shell itself runs under "USERID", but when I do a "sleep 60s", the sleep command runs under "USERID1" (for example). > > > -- > Peter Hunkeler > > -- I have a theory that it's impossible to prove anything, but I can't prove it.
