I have been using A/UX for a few weeks now. I was wondering about a few
points:

1) I have changed my shell to /usr/local/bin/tcsh. After I did this, I was
unable to 'su' any more - it just came back with "Sorry!". In SunOS, there is
a file /etc/shells which details trusted shells, is there any such thing in
A/UX. It seems somewhat bizarre that when it is the superuser that has to
change the shell, if it isn't the csh/sh/ksh that you can now no longer use
su. Have I missed something?

2) Is there any way to get A/UX to format high-density discs? If hfx could
also be patched to recognise high density discs, it would also be very useful.

Many thanks,
david
