[mod.computers.vax] SET ACCOUNTING/DISABLE and SHOW ACCOUNTING

KROON@HGRRUG51.BITNET (Peter A. Kroon, KVI, +31-50-633618) (08/24/86)

If I tell VMS V4.3 to disable accounting for all classes with SET ACC /DISABLE
and ask for a SHOW ACCOUNTING, VMS tells me that accounting is ENABLED (!!!)
for all those classes that there were enabled before the disable command.

Has anyone seen the same behaviour? Do I misinterprete some help or
documentation? Is this a bug, or a very misleading feature?

If SHOW ACCOUNTING tells me that accounting is enabled, while it is disabled
is there some other trick to see if accounting is really enabled?

Thanks for any advice. Peter A. Kroon.
