Hayden) Newsgroups: comp.protocols.iso.dev-environ Subject: Failing tsapd Message-ID: <9105062156.AA01508@chanta.EBay.Sun.COM> Date: 6 May 91 21:56:14 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Distribution: inet Organization: The Internet Lines: 44 Hans: I don't know if this helps a lot but I noticed that when I started the tsapd from an interactive shell as follows, /usr/etc/isode/tsapd > & /dev/null, that I could run ./make test multiple times without it failing. However, when I tried to run the test against a tsapd that I had started from my rc.local file (see below) it also failed just as you described. This was not an upgrade install and so I think that has little to do with it. I am running the simplest of environments, tsapd was running on the same machine from which I executed the test. I am running SunOS 4.1.1 Rev B on a SPARCStation 1. I suspect that it has something to do with the change Sun made to the rc scripts when we went from 4.0.3 to 4.1. We did this to satisfy POSIX.1 was related to the notion of a controlling terminal requirement which was not satisfied in earlier releases. I don't have a definitive answer yet but you have certainly aroused my curiosity! If you come up with an answer to this please let the alias know! Thanx: Ernest H.
