34 <PRE> (sorry..posted again about this before I got this reply from AC)
36 I believe that WAS the case, though, as I mentioned, I neglected
37 to do an `ls -l` in the data/ directory before I restarted services (a
38 mistake I don't plan to duplicate).
39 For the most recent services death (
1hr ago), I see that there IS
40 a nick.db.save file in my data directory, and no nick.db. I've got about
41 14MB of quota left, and my nick.db is under
200KB.
42 Perhaps my post just prior to this one will reveal more info (I
43 included debugging, etc).
