The new logfile is then used for the duration of the process that created it, and is made r/w on exit. The r/w logfiles are integrated into LOGFILE by uulog. It looks like you have UUCP processes that get terminated with extreme predjudice before the files are made readable. -- Mark Stein Fortune Systems
