Hi, I had the same problem and it persists from 4 day ago until today. As a reference: $> ls -l /var/db/portaudit/auditfile.tbz -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 31754 7 nov 02:40 /var/db/portaudit/auditfile.tbz Isn't portaudit too important to have such problems? This is the second failure in between 6 weeks. Peter Rosa
