I don't know of any way to capture a terminal session retrospectively, but if you know in advance that you want to capture it you can use 'script'. 'man script' for more details. OTOH, if you just want to capture the output of 'ipchains -M -L' why not just redirect it to a file, i.e. # ipchains -M -L > ipchains.rules Another way is to use ipchains-save, like this:- # ipchains-save > ipchains.rules Mike -- Mike Jones Unix System Administrator Office for National Statistics South Wales, UK For the latest data on the economy and society consult National Statistics at http://www.statistics.gov.uk ********************************************************************** Legal Disclaimer : Any views expressed by the sender of this message are not necessarily those of the Office for National Statistics **********************************************************************
