That's the bad version of the command, where it will wipe out /etc/motd because you are telling enscript to print *into* that file. Of course, if you correct the command to "enscript -p- /etc/motd" and try it again without putting something in the now-blank /etc/motd, you will be printing an empty file. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
