- You must first kill the running rpc.cmsd process *before* copying the callog
- file. I believe it is because rpc.cmsd keeps everything in memory and then
- writes it out. If you copy the callog file in the /var/spool/calendar while
- rpc.cmsd is running you won't see the changes...and the file will be over-
- written. If you kill the process, copy the file in, and restart the process
- everything should work smoothly.
