Edwin,

In answer to your question below:

	pswmon1: {112} ls -la / | head -4
	total 10515
	drwxr-xr-x  21 root  wheel     1024 Jun  1 18:12 .
	drwxr-xr-x  21 root  wheel     1024 Jun  1 18:12 ..
	-rw-r--r--   2 root  wheel      805 Jun 16  2001 .cshrc
	pswmon1: {113}

It appears that the root directory permissions are OK.  Thanks.

Kent Kuriyama

How does your / look like?

[~] edwin@k7>ls  -al / | head -3
total 12093
drwxr-xr-x  18 root  wheel      512 Apr 24 22:54 .
drwxr-xr-x  18 root  wheel      512 Apr 24 22:54 ..
