Upon restart they noticed that the file /proj/webtrends/receive/bama/www3/access.01Jun.r.gz was unreadable by root (permission denied). I did a reiserfsck on the drive and noticed that access.01Jun.r.gz returned an error stating the file pointed to nowhere. I was unable to complete a reiserfsck --fix-fixable because of the length of time that this (fsck) process took since this was an unscheduled downtime. During the weekend i will attempt to do the fsck again, however i really needed to know if this problem has been observed by anyone else, and what steps they took to fix the problem. -Kurt -- ================================================ Kurt Palmer SysAdmin kpalmer@advance.net Advance Internet 201-459-2846 --0__=ZIs95RBGeMsK6BtkRFAT8V0PMm9tSP93Egy4oS5a1CQsmgpbwom14xoy--
