Sorry, after an hour it finished with this text.

AIPSUPD - calling UPDREPORT
sendmail: fatal: parameter inet_interfaces: no local interface found for ::1
AIPSUPD - UPDREPORT done, MNJ finished.

When I start AIPS and enter my AIPS number, I get the following message:
 ZMSGOP: FILE DA01:MSD1AO000.1AO;      NOT FOUND
MSGWRT ERROR      2 AT OPEN
AIPS 1: ZOPEN: STILL WAITING FOR FILE DA00:ACD000000;

Should I just delete this file and restart it?  Any idea what caused this
issue? Thanks and hope all is well -- Yosi
