If I didn't have them installed properly, I checked by overriding 
everything -- copying default.subscription and zephyr.vars from the 
etc/zephyr directory to my home as .zephyr.subs and .zephyr.vars .. I 
loaded the system from the ground up (zephyrd zhm zwgc) and did a zctl 
list to make sure the file was there....

Is there any way to see what you are currently subscribed to?  I quick 
browse of the man pages tells me that I can only see the subscriptions file.

Anyway, I even set myself with zctl add to the MESSAGE PERSONAL %me% and 
the message personal %me%, and still nothing.  I can't get anything 
personal... (I can't get personal... *sob* ..:) )..

IT's definitely something to do with the compile of the software -- it 
just didn't go together right.  The solaris 2.3 installation went very 
smoothly, thanks.

Thanks for your help... any more would be appreciated.
