I posted a while ago saying how my rc.local file hangs the system on bootup, but it runs fine when done after the fact (manually). I got dosnfsd up and running again. Thanks to those who responded; it wasn't a matter of just unplugging the machine and the files weren't corrupted as far as I could tell (diff gave no diff). Has anyone gotten ircd running on a NeXT? That still don't work. I'm sure other IRC sites are getting sick of lewhoosh.umd.edu going up and down and up and down all the time... I've tried everything. I even made an rc.local.ircd, and bypassed THAT in an act of desparation. Now I'm just grasping at straws. ------ Mike Matthews, matthews@lewhoosh.umd.edu (NeXT)/matthews@umdd (bitnet) ------ Ehrman's Commentary: 1. Things will get worse before they get better. 2.
