- Dave,
- I missed the fact he was modifying conf.c instead of dfile. My comments
- applied to using dfile. I have found some 'tunable' parameters do not
- take effect when placed in dfile. To be honest, that may have been under
- 8.05 but since I still have my 'hand crafted' /etc/master, I wouldn't
- know. 9.01 seems to work ok using sam or just editing dfile.
