I also have cron cancel hung printjobs every midnight. Hardy -------****------- Prof Meinhard E.

Below is a listing: prompt# ls -Flags total 78 1 drwxrwxrwx 2 agent daemon 1024 Feb 20 08:35 ./ 1 drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 1024 Dec 14 15:21 ../ 15 -rw------- 1 customer customer 15091 Feb 16 19:07 spooled.1 22 -rw------- 1 customer customer 21581 Feb 17 18:42 spooled.2 39 -rw------- 1 customer customer 38935 Feb 20 08:35 spooled.3 these files seem to contain PostScript code, and indicate that they are related to different NeXTapps... Can anyone enlighten me as to the purpose, source, and nature of these files? Can they be deleted without cratering something? thanks.. NeXTmail can be received at: cnh5730@maraba.tamu.edu
