That too. Not even FS are all that likely to get their numbers in that much of a tizz, it's only the bean-counting department that lost the plot... > >Phil: how big's the `mailq` on that box? > > At the time, there were 2 messages in it.

Something to the effect of `/etc/init.d/bind restart' would be favourite (and compliant); given the SuSE effect, it could well be /sbin/init.d/ and it might well be `named' not `bind'. If you're not running your own nameserver, of course, it's a bit difficult to restart it, so just pass along please ;) > >and sendmail and kicking off a `sendmail -q'[i]? > > I normally manually execute ``sendmail -q -v'' to post emails; that's > what I did above. Hmm. OK. Stop & restart the daemon first, after dialling up, btw. ~Tim -- `Do you mean a Lenox heating/ |piglet@stirfried.vegetable.org.uk refrigeration unit?', he asked. |http://spodzone.org.uk/
