I have had no success with the following line in the inittab file on a computer running Solaris 2.5. It just does not work. ls:2:respawn:[path]/listserv/go bg The following line produces the message that the program is being spawned too often but it still does not boot the LISTSERV daemon. ls:234:respawn:[path]/listserv/go bg What is the correct thing to do under Solaris 2.x? /Bernard --------------------------------------------------------------------- Bernard Devine Phone: +46-8-163905 Department of Psychology Fax: +46-8-159342 (work) Stockholm University e-mail: [log in to unmask] S-106 91 Stockholm url: http://www.psychology.su.se Sweden PGPid: 1024/A4DB8215 Fingerprint: 57 cd 3c cc 60 ca 70 41 2a df cf 40 42 a1 f6 bb ---------------------------------------------------------------------
