Does anyone know or is aware that if you use PC_LOCK software (public domain) and hit the shift key 3 times, the 6300 will lose everything. The only way to recover is to do a hardware reset. Does anyone know why or what can be done (I know, don't hit the shift key 3x). mike dimario ihlpg!dimario 312/979-6741

If you hit the left shift key 3 times PC_LOCK locks your terminal. Although it clears the screen nothing is lost, whatever was running is left running. To get control back simply type your password, all other keys are disgarded. -- ---------------- Thomas Rosenfeld @ AT&T Information Systems Labs, Middletown, NJ (201) 957-5867 UUCP: {harpo,ihnp4,burl,akgua}!mtgzz!rosen Disclaimer: I don't claim anything.
