Good afternoon, Randy.
No, I haven't tried that yet. I'm a little nervous about doing that with
three of the four __db.00x files still showing as open (using
lsof). That's why I'm wondering if I should reboot first... not
necessarily guaranteed from two towns away so I'm putting it off until I
can drop what I'm doing and drive over there if the remote reboot fails.
If you think I can just blow away the __db.00x files even though they are
open, I'll try that...
