Then run: portmanager -u -f -l -y That will create a log file "/var/log/portmanager.log" that you can inspect= =20 later to see what happened if it goes into an infinite loop again, HTH =2D-=20 Gerard Seibert gerard@seibercom.net A Riverside, California, health ordinance states that two persons may not kiss each other without first wiping their lips with carbolized rosewater. --nextPart1862980.Hk5f80U7Bd Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBE6bh0s3R1WQUU6lgRAobEAKDGJj6ojkOOyKgN2BD8KmNhQNQ29ACggXPJ +i56LN/8/Eb0o0WTtQrDlfo= =X/cO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1862980.Hk5f80U7Bd--
