Then read the docs for this program. Almost all (and all well-written) programs will give you some way to increase the verbosity of the logging. Usually there's a "debug" setting which logs every single move the program makes. Look throught the docs to see how to turn this on and then do so. The docs should also tell you what the default logging method is. -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
