I had a quick look at the source, and one thing that could be relevant is the permissions of the procmail man page (_not_ the cat page, which you've already shown has permissions which are OK), though I'd guess you've already checked that. It shouldn't be relevant, but it looks like it might be. Failing that, I've got no idea, and unless someone else has, you might have to compile man with even more debugging stuff. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
