Since it's the same /upgrade file on all of the DEC-3100s, and some of them work fine, it's pretty odd. A few machines cross mount /usr and perhaps this is breaking things? Now, before I ftp to uu.uu.net and just drop in the BSD telnetd and rlogind, and say "to heck" with the whole silly license business, can someone comment on what's going on with the license code to cause this to happen? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason Heirtzler (617) 353-2780 jdh@bu-pub.bu.edu Information Technology Boston University ..!bu.edu!bu-pub!jdh
