Because of a problem with the network interface, my machine is going insanely slow through the 'Recovering vi editor sessions' because the users in question are normally accessed via NIS from the main NIS server. I need to be able to drop to a quick command prompt with write privileges so that I can make the changes needed to /etc/sysconfig to bring up the network card properly. Any ideas ? On a side note, how can I purge all the old vi editor sessions so that I don't get umpteen mail messages telling me to 'nvi -r blahblah' ?? -Kurt
