I've recently rented a jailed FreeBSD system, and have this little problem: Now and then, this file is created in my home directory: -rw-r--r-- 1 root users 6 May 1 20:20 /home/bkhl/- The contents of the file is the string "xyzzy\n". Now I never say "xyzzy", so I'm pretty sure I haven't set this up by mistake. To find out where this happens, how could I monitor this file name for activity, to find out what command is creating it? -- Björn Lindström <bkhl@elektrubadur.se> http://bkhl.elektrubadur.se/
