Having done a bit more research, I'm upgrading "util-linux" and the aptly named "login" to sarge (some things were already there ;). However apt-get install login fails like this: ... Unpacking replacement login ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-12_i386.deb (--unpack): unable to make backup link of `./bin/login' before installing new version: Operation not permitted Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-12_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I'm root, and I'm not sure why this is failing. thanks, Patrick Lesslie -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
