It even made it into the first few releases on the Celerity 6000 (aka the FPS 500). It was finally fixed in release 4.0.? of FPX. On 1200 systems, you definitely need to set up a macro to replace bcopy with an if statement that only executes bcopy when the byte count is non-zero. -- Jerry DeLapp Computing beyond the Bleeding Edge -- The Advanced Computing Laboratory
