Unfortunately, there is no "crash" command in SCO *Xenix*. It only exists in SCO Unix. Instead, there is a command in SCO Xenix Streams/TCP called /usr/bin/sw, which just (dynamically) outputs the stream block usage. (I don't recall this being documented anywhere). Once you can see what it is running out of, you can go down the custom menus and rebuild the kernel with tweaked-up values. Keith Mitchell (postmaster) Spider Systems Ltd. Spider Systems Inc.
