All good intentions notwithstanding... i think that's rather a matter of local sysadmin's policy than something we should put up there by default. (Yes, i know, i should have brought this up earlier in the -scsi list.) Btw., the scsi-defects script freezes one of the harddrives in my machine at work hard when asking for the primary defect list (a Fujitsu 2 GB 7200 rpm -- don't have the model # handy). So take it with a grain of salt, and don't use it blindly... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
