I should have said the error messages are appearing from two sources SENDMAIL and NATD. The error messages appear simultaneously on all virtual-consoles which are logged on and that's when I'm logged on as root or as myself. Any hope of persuading SENDMAIL and NATD to not put the messages up at all ? regards richard shea. ***************************************************** Open Door Ltd PO Box 119-46 Wellington PH 04 384 7639 FX 04 384 7672 ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
