The nss files top the list for this morning. The log goes back to Oct 
03, and shows no other nss stuff.

It appears that I did "CTRL C" at Oct 18 03:18:41 which caused my 
problem, I'll try not to do that again!

The repair effort shows after 9 o'clock this morning.

(END)

I guess it's safe enough to reboot now and start the new kernel? Will do 
that unless advised otherwise.

There's nothing in the log I recognize as significant ... I erased the 
nss files and it simply replaced them.
