Is it just "one of those things" with -CURRENT? Anyway, here's the output of "w": -----[ SNIP ]----- [machine01] ~$ w 2:49PM up 14 mins, 3 users, load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT bradh p0 rica.comeS4 12May61 7 bash root p1 rica.comT4 12May61 6 vi /etc/rc.conf root p2 rica.comFU4 12May61 - w [machine01] ~$ -----[ SNIP ]----- The line breaks (and strange formatting in general) is exactly what it looks like. I get the same thing with "finger". Anyway, to me it looks like a problem with 'utmp' or 'wtmp'. thanks, brad -- Fortune: Serenity through viciousness.
