Hi, Just noticed that on a Linux system (RedHat 5.2 & 6.0) when one does a "finger user" or a "w user" and the said user has been idle for less than an hour, the idle time is reported in minutes & seconds. ..however, on a FreeBSD 3.2 system, the same commands run in the same scenario don't display seconds. In other words, the idle time reported by Linux was much more accurate and informative than its counterpart in FreeBSD. Anyone know the reason why ? - Cillian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
