Question Disk Crash
We have a Unix system with two hard drives. When we tried to access it this morning it had frozen, and when we rebooted it couldn't find one of the hard drives, and had quite a few bad data blocks on the other. Of course we fear the worst: that the drive is completely gone, but were not sure how to be sure. I don't have much experience in this area and can't find anything in my books. Can any of you recommend a course of action?

socks.fc

SOCKS.FC(5)							File Formats Manual						       SOCKS.FC(5)

NAME

       socks.fc - Frozen configuration file for SOCKS clients

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/socks.fc

DESCRIPTION

       The  frozen  configuration file is produced by make_socksfc and is essentially the memory image of the parsed configuration file. Using the
       frozen configuration file can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS client programs since they no longer have to parse the file contents.

       When the SOCKS client starts, it always looks for the frozen configuration file /etc/socks.fc first . If that file is not  found,  it  then
       tries  to  use  the  plain-text	configuration file /etc/socks.conf. If you use frozen configuration, you must remember to run make_socksfc
       every time after you modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS clients will continue to use the frozen file of a previous configuration.

       To find out the contents of a frozen configuration file, use dump_socksfc.
