[Orca-users] column mismatch w/ procallator

For us it is due to nfs and auto mounting / umounting of dirs changing the 
number of columns.    Look for the following text in procallator.pl and 
edit it.

   # Get filesystem ocupation
    @df=`/bin/df -k`;


We use either of the following changes to fix it.

   @df=`/bin/df -k |grep -v home |grep -v export |grep -v net`;

or

  @df=`/bin/df -k / `;

Bernard
