If vi.recover is not going to survive a reboot, why bother having it at all? That's is sole purpose for existing. If you don't like the warning, just delete the recovery procedure rather than creating the directory. It does no good for you to try to recover something that will never be there. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
