Well, I know this one is "...dead, Jim", but perhaps I can answer your second question which is how to do what it is you originally wanted to do. As Gordon pointed out, the redirect is handled by the original shell (Thanks, Gordon. I learned something. One of those, 'Oh yes, of course, I should

I'm installing Oracle and the Oracle install docs say to modify a couple of header files for shared memory and semaphores, then rebuild the kernel. On Solaris, this type of change is done in the /etc/systems file followed by a reboot. Hint, hint kernel guys... A few questions: Do I really have t

If you're sure it's a space, how about egrep ^[^ ].* > Check the new file and make sure you have all the lines you want. I would count lines to find out how many total lines and how many don't have a leading space. The number of lines in new file should match the difference. Once you

I bet you don't have an IP address 127.127.1.0 available on your net and the failure is because it couldn't connect. If all you are trying to do is keep your local LAN in sync, you can pick one machine and use rdate in cron to sync the rest to it. If you really need to have accurate time, you're

If your screensaver really died but you were still not back to normal, that implies the screensaver was not the problem. Or at least not the only problem. I've had screen savers hang a machine but in all cases, if it can be killed, everything clears up. Dana Bourgeois > -Original Messag
