Whenever I boot into FreeBSD, I get an e-mail message to me, from me (NV stuff...): -------------------------------------------------- >From daemon Sat Mar 21 18:11:55 1998 Date: Sat, 21 Mar 1998 18:11:55 GMT X-vi-recover-file: /root/.steprc X-vi-recover-path: /var/tmp/vi.recover/vi.000317 Reply-To: root From: root (Nvi recovery program) To: root Subject: Nvi saved the file .steprc Precedence: bulk On Wed Mar 18 01:41:34 1998, the user root was editing a file named /root/.steprc on the machine manning.HIP.Berkeley.EDU, when it was saved for recovery. You can recover most, if not all, of the changes to this file using the -r option to vi: vi -r /root/.steprc ---------------------------------------------------------- It gets really anoying. Is there any way to stop it sending this? syslogd is off, in /etc/rc.conf Thanks. P.S. I have an AMD processor. In /etc/rc.conf right below syslogd, there's this amd_enable option. Should I use it? Also, I deleted all the files in the /usr/src directory to make room (of which I have verry little). But now, I can't recompile my Kernel! For that matter, I can't even FIND the source for my kernel! Am I up S**t's creek? Can I re download JUST the sources? I think I lost track of where my kernel was. I'm somewhat new at this. thanks:) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
