Thanks for all the invaluable assistance folks. Much appreciated. Many people have helped on a number of items, some of which I'll summarise here, perhaps others can use the info; To those specifically who gave me this info, thanks very much. Hope you dont mind me passing it on. The Malloc Warning problem; This problem was showing up in httpd- error_log files as a Malloc warning: free(): page already free. To trap the offending beast, and find out just what was causing this, the author of malloc gave me this trap; ln -s AJ /etc/malloc.conf This causes the malloc offender to dump.core, also producing the pid of the offending process. Very neat. Look on your primary screen for the resulting message. The printing problem. How do you get an IBM Proprinter/Cannon BJ330e to do CR/CRLF printing, and avoid the dreaded staircase output. The following printcap and if-simple interface shows how. #/etc/printcap # @(#)printcap 5.3 (Berkeley) 6/30/90 # Do also refer to section 7 (Printing) of the handbook. A local copy # can be found under /usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.{html,latin1}. # rattan|line|cannon|lp|local line printer:\ :sh:sd=/var/spool/lpd/rattan:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :ff=\033\033&k2G:fo:tr=\033E:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/if-simple:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: and, #!/bin/sh #/usr/local/libexec/if-simple chmod 555 # # if-simple text filter for lpd if [ "$1" = -c ]; then cat else sed -e s/./ / fi #sed puts a CR/LF at the start of each text line. # The third problem How do I log the ftpd output to /var/log/ftpd in inetd.conf put 'ftpd -l -S' instead of jus ftpd -l, and ..... in syslog.conf, put the following !ftpd *.* /var/log/ftpd The fourth problem Why wont Apache recognise a shell script that NSCA has no trouble with? no solution yet... cheers, Robert -- Reality. re al 'i ty.
