    OK - excuse my ignorance here please...
    locate quotalegacy turns up nothing
    I used invoca.ch srpms and did rpmbuild from them and never actually
    compiled from source so I suspect that is why I can't locate it.
    This is a whiteboxlinux 3 (RHEL 3 clone) - and I would take direction
    here...should I install some symbol package for debugging or untar the
    tarball - and compile after your suggested changes ? Which would be the
    better course? I actually have this problem on my system (whiteboxlinux)
    and a client system (RHEL 3 ES) but I would rather fool with this on my
    system.
    Thanks
    Craig
