In facts I have the CATLOG process running but there is no entry for it in SYSJOB.INI. QUASAR should be enough because it's the main Galaxy process that starts everything else. I have this: Job Who Line# What Size(P) State Run Time 1 [OPR] DET STOMPR 11+12 SL 0 01 2 [OPR] CTY OPR 68+40 HB 0 3 [OPR] 4 SYSTAT 23+SPY RN 0 7 [OPR] DET FAL-10 115+40 SL 0 8 [OPR] DET FILDAE 17 HB 0 9 [OPR] DET ACTDAE 69+40 SL 0 10 [OPR] DET DAEMON 11+SPY HB 0 11 [OPR] DET QUASAR 159+40 SL 0 12 [OPR] DET PULSAR 66+40 HB 0 13 [OPR] DET MIC 5+15 SL 0 14 [OPR] DET NML 38+135 HB 0 15 [OPR] DET MX 124+47 HB 0 16 [OPR] DET ORION 52+40 SL 0 17 [OPR] DET NEBULA 27+40 HB 0 18 [OPR] DET CATLOG 147+40 HB 0 FAL-10, PULSAR, NML, ORION, NEBULA and CATLOG are all started automatically and I have no entries for them in SYSJOB.INI. STOMPR is started by INITIA when reading TTY.INI. OPR and SYSTAT are two interactive jobs. FILDAE, ACTDAE, DAEMON, QUASAR and MIC come from SYSJOB.INI. MX is started by NODNAM which has an entry in SYSJOB.INI too. Maybe CATLOG has forced a default search list and now it would work even if you remove its entry from SYSJOB.INI... Anything else I might be missing? Accounts? A nice login banner? Full HECnet nodelist loaded automatically? :) G.
