    The tool is very good! Have your file permissions repaired once a week without any hassle!

    It also reveals a weekness of VersionTrackerPro - if you have installed Macaroni VersionTrackerPro does not recognise it, at least not with 10.4.11.

    Unobtrusive, set it up, and it just works. I have it installed on several Macs. I find it much easier to configure than *censored*tail, for example.

    Macaroni Troubleshooting ReportClear history still Ineffective - Version: 2.1.1, 1/8/2008 01:51AM PST

    Clear history still not working with 2.1.1 version. (Leopard 10.5.1 Macbook pro and PPC)

    You can clear it but when you re-openned the history window, log are still there !

    Another thing :

    You can't alway put to 7 days for exemple, the "Automatically clear entries". It always stay on 90 days even if you put it on 7 days ...

    More, Support is not effective, they never answer .

    I'm really disappointed
