I've found and fixed these long ago but still it didn't work. Now, I've found out, that in /etc/passwd the user 'fcron' had a GID which wasn't in /etc/group any longer. Probably, when sys-process/fcron is reinstalled, portage does not seem to change the entry in /etc/passwd (which it has created itself some time ago) This was a hard one. Again, many thanks to all of you who have helped me, Helmut. -- Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany
