Thanks, I didn't dig very deep there, but I also read it as it sits
in /sbin, its a script, and I can see its something to do with
networking, or appears to be, so I'll leave that one alone.
I'm still looking for whatever it is thats sending me a junk email for
everytime incoming messages are scanned for tokens, whatever the heck
that is. If I rx'd an email on every poll of the servers, I'd get 960 of
these things a day. As it is, it ranges up to the 400 count on a busy
day. Its gotten well past the funny stage. Particularly when no one
seems to have a clue whats doing it because the headers on the message
are blank. All of them!
