-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At some point hitherto, Frank Ramsay hath spake thusly: > the hosts line reads > hosts: file nisplus dns I'd get rid of nisplus if they're not using NIS+, but that isn't likely to fix your problem. It will improve the efficiency of lookups though. > I'm putting some code it in check h_error but this problem occures ovenight > so it's hard to test since they need the server running durring the day. Can't you just copy a segment of the code, compile it into a different program, and run that to test it? - -- Derek Martin ddm@pizzashack.org - --------------------------------------------- I prefer mail encrypted with PGP/GPG!
