The only person who could have fixed it instantly, orkim, wasn't around. He had the root password, if we had the root password we could have fixed it for you in seconds. (Or, if orkim had been around, he could have fixed it in minutes.) So then, there was one command that would fix it (or rather, a small set of commands that could be easy be typed on a single line), but only orkim would be allowed to type that, anyone else who tried would be denied access.

Ok fine (tho yours was an account problem, not a dsyfunctional exu, to be picky), but this doesn't really help Chris, does it? *sigh* I'm doing the best I can, considering the millions of different possible combinations there are. btw, Chris, what does typing "file `which exu`" give you? > > Kat > <snip> jbrown -- /"\ ASCII ribbon | \ / campain against | Linux User:190064 X HTML in e-mail and | Linux Machine:84163 /*\ news, and unneeded MIME |
