I went to "admin" (a directory) and said: C //tmp/newdir3 RET yes RET Then I went to "etc" (another dir) and said: C //tmp/newdir3 RET yes RET And I didn't get any errors. So do you have a step-by-step recipe to reproduce the problem? -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
