Reformatting the disk, although > not preferred here, is an option. The "-i" (number of bytes per inode) parameter, from what I recall, defaults to a value of 2048. If you have to resort to reformatting your disk, try specifying a smaller value (on our news spool drives, I specified "-i 1024"; I suppose that a value of 1536 would also have done the trick, but I was lazy. :-) ). -- Christian Henry e-mail: henryc@visinet.ca Networks Integration Toronto, Ontario support: (416) 488-5352 VisiNet Internet Services Canada data: (416) 488-4009
