Has anyone out there any info on this? Where could I get hold of it? Our Vax 750 under Ultrix recently crashed after a directory which ls said was empty was unlinked. Fsck couldn't fix it & we had to do a restore of the file system. You guessed it, it was the root file system ! Any info on fsdb would be greatfully received. Thanks in advance.
