All, I used to use the utility mkfile in SunOS that would create a file of a specified file size. I am new to BSD and understand I could use DD to do a similiar thing. Does anyone have an example using DD on how to create a junk file that is 1MB in size? Thanks, Curtis __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
