Or wait until the first of the month and it'll be rotated out automatically. Should only have to move the old one out of the way. I forget if a new one will be made when needed. In any case it doesn't hurt to create a new wtmp (with "touch"), then chown and chmod the same as the old one. You didn't install 3.0 to clean (new) filesystems but rather installed on top of your pre-3.0 system, right? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
