<br><font size=2><tt>Sorry for my lack of information and my inaccurate
report. But right now, merlin has been deactivated, and with a log file
of several hundred of megabytes, I did'nt found the correct lines. By "some
information saying that the database is updated", I want to say that
there is a lot of messages saying that the database is updated correctly,
but that takes a lot of time. Il will enabled again merlin, purge the log
file and send an extrat to the list</tt></font>

<br><font size=2><tt>That is what what I thought. I will put a crontab
