I have one user that can't get preferences to stick. He sets them then if he quits Preferences and starts it back, the preference is gone! In addition, if he selects Unix Expert and hides the app, nevertheless, he doesn't get the dot files to show. Any ideas on what to look for? - - - - - - - - - J. W. Wooten

Let me guess... the machine he uses does not get root access to the NFS filesystem that his home directory is on. I was hoping this was fixed in 3.0. -- David Lemson (217) 244-1205 University of Illinois NeXT Campus Consultant / CCSO NeXT Lab System Admin Internet : lemson@uiuc.edu UUCP :...!uiucuxc!uiucux1!lemson NeXTMail accepted BITNET : LEMSON@UIUCVMD
