I sez that the sys-admin need not install the BSD environment (when he's installing SR10) to have the /etc/accton facility. Because I have not install SR10, I'm not sure why Michal couldn't find /etc/accton. --------------- Original Message -------------------------------------- From: Merlin The MagicianSubject: RE: Accounting ?

Well, there does not seem to be anything like /etc/accton. I came across a three-program accounting env. You have one process sitting in the background and collecting info every X sec. Ther other program signals new users on the system and when users log off. The program was written by Scott (..) from Apollo. The program is unsupported. Is that you have meant by /etc/accton. ? Furthermore, running the above mentioned program couses a 20 fold slowdown, not an acceptable trade-off. Well, I'll look around for the /etc/accton but no clue as to where it can be.
