Huh? I thought the -s option was to resize the index nodes, something you DON'T want to do unless you are migrating data from another platform with a different node size (e.g. Xenix to UNIX). Did you try with -y alone? Can you go back to a pre- (bcheck -ys) version and try it with -y alone? I fear that a resize-node request where not needed is only asking for trouble... >Stew Benedict -- Alan Denney yosemite_at_netcom.com "My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right." -- Ashleigh Brilliant
