I'm not sure what the init log is, or where it is (I don't see it in the log directory). But a grep of the "regular" Listserv logs revealed multiple messages saying something very similar for some (not all) of the signup files: LISTSERV-20050925.LOG:68264:25 Sep 2005 20:37:37 SIGNUP file number 3 is being compressed... Thanks, Harry. This still looks like it's going to take a VERY LONG TIME to do, but I think I have a better handle on what's going on.
