Have a look in /etc/syslog.conf and you will see one entry that writes to /dev/console and another two that write to root if she's logged in. You'll need to change these to get rid of the messages, although I suspect that you'd be better off by simply not logging in as root. :-) -Dom -- This posting is not an official communication of Demon Internet Ltd., unless otherwise stated. ---- Work: hdm@demon.net ---- Play: dom@myrddin.demon.co.uk ---- Feet on the ground, mind in the stratosphere - P.L.
