A 'find' (find / -name bb) resulted in the following:
/home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/bin.redhatES4.0/bb
/home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/bin/bb
/home/bbuser/bb -> bb1.9h-btf/
/home/bbuser/bbc1.9h-btf/bin.redhatES4.0/bb
/home/bbuser/bbc1.9h-btf/bin/bb
/home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/www/
/home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/www/
I put that in a file called foundbb.txt
Then I ran a: for name in `cat foundbb.txt` ; do ls -al $name ; done
And got this result
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bbuser apache 14388 Dec 7 2005
/home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/bin.redhatES4.0/bb
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bbuser apache 14388 Dec 7 2005

lrwxrwxrwx 1 bbuser bbuser 28 Dec 7 2005 /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/bb
-> /home/bbuser/bb1.9h-btf/www/
Hope this helps.

Subject: {bb} who's writing to BB file ?
OK, I've been looking through the code, but I can't seem to find
this....
does anyone know what piece of the server code writes to the file
$BBTMP/BB ? This is the file that lists all the active "alarms". It's
read by some of the web scripts (maybe other scripts, too), but I
can't seem to find who is writing it.
(The name of the file ("BB") makes it a little difficult to find
when grepping through the source files.... :( )
BTW, I've running an older version of BB (v1.9c), which is before the
server/client split, if that makes a difference...
Thanks much,
John
