So what I did was scp /bin/* /usr/bin/* /sbin/* /usr/sbin/* /usr/libexec/* Certainly not the most efficient solution and I probably shouldn't have had to do it but I had 4 servers stuck and only one up to dade and working with the changes and I just wanted to get through this and cut my losses :-) (But that is another story.) You might want to have a cdrom or another machine that is up to date and readily accessable, just in case. Good luck, ed __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
