Bug Description
Binary package hint: acct
Before dapper, one could disable process accounting by running 'accton' without arguments. Dapper's accton program reports an error, however, when you do this despite the man page:
accton filename turns on process accounting. If called with no
arguments, it will, by default, stop process accounting.
# accton
accton: no arguments
Usage: accton [OPTION] on|off|
Try 'accton --help' for more information.
The man page should be updated to reflect the new command-line usage.
