Occasionally, one types a Unix command and either gets a "segmentation violation" or the Cshell abruptly terminates. Then the Cshell and all other Cshells active hang. New CSH's also hang, as do new BSH's. The Aegis shell still runs, and can be used to run at least some unix commands. A "ps ax" so derived indicates that the CSH's are in state "S". Sometimes logging out and logging in helps. Usually it is necessary to shut the node. It seems to me that the problem is mildly related to use of Vt100 and TCP. But I haven't hard evidence. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix? - Geof -- UUCP: {decwrl,sun}!imagen!geof ARPA: imagen!geof@decwrl.dec.com
