Hi Kathy,

If you did set up your client's in 'usual way' the 'sys/conf/mips' stuff
resides a) from scope of the client in: /sys/conf/, /sys/conf/mips ...
        b) from scope of the master in: /dlclient?/<client_name>.root/sys...

so you can find there the configuration file.

If you had delete the directory it's now real problem.

Just make a copy from the master maschine and create a new config file
via the 'sizer(8)' command.

Good Luck
Norbert
