Note this -----------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^ And now note this in the strangely wrapped line below: > # Check the quotas (must be after ypbind if > using NIS)[ "X${check_quotas}" = X"YES" ]; then Here -------------^^^^^^^^^^^^ They are not the same thing. It might help to set the value that the rc file actually checks. Of course, if the line was really wrapped, there would be other awful symptoms, so I'm going to presume that it was just broken by one of the wonderful mailers out there. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
