Secondly, all_hosts is a netgroup. Make sure that you are resolving netgroups correctly on this host. 'ypcat netgroup' or 'ypmatch all_hosts netgroup'. There really isn't anything else on that line that could be the problem, save unprintable chars. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
