Sometimes the data-servers quit, or the data-flow gets interrupted. Usually the client recovers, but not all the time. If nothing seems to be happening for a long time, stop the setiathome client and remove the "wtemp.sah" file in /var/db/setiathome directory. This will force the client to refetch new data. -- Jonathan Chen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "We laugh in the face of danger, we drop icecubes down the vest of fear" - Edmond Blackadder III To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
