I'm not sure is sorting first actually buys you anything. But it should work fine. Keep 3 shells open, 1 to run the command from, one running top, and the other ready to kill it :). I'd be more concerned with how you are collecting this data - i.e. how easy is it for th esame person to provide di

I dunno why I hadn't thought of it before (brainfart), but I created an account, did not set the password, and tried telneting in using it. It wouldn't let me in. I checked /etc/shadow and found !! in the area where the password would normally be decrypted. I guess it's already doing what y

When I modify my root crontab, I edit it with "crontab -e -u root" and it auto-installs the new version when I exit VI. Maybe you can try it like that. will - Original Message - From: "gnielson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Redhat list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, April 07, 2000 3:12 P
