This is in the "It sure would be nice if..." category. Has anyone thought about making expire emit more informative messages concerning what it has done to repair inconsistencies found in the active ot history files? It is nice to know that expire has fixed a problem, but it would also be nice to know what the problem was in the first place. If time permits and it does not seem to difficult, I will post anything that get done to provide this to the net. -- --Dan EhrlichThe Pennsylvania State University, Computer Science Department 333 Whitmore Laboratory, University Park, PA 16802 +1 814 863 1142
