I have posted about this before, and got no replies, so I'm trying again... For some reason, I can't log into my Vaxstation II/RC - it seems to have trouble getting the session manager and the rest of the DecWindows stuff going. I noticed that there is a core file in / which seems to have been produced by getty. Any particular reason getty should be dumping core? Any suggestions (I have checked for all the Xqvsm, etc. - they are present). Mike Levin (mlevin@jade.tufts.edu) Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
