I recently installed Oliver Laumann's screen program on my Sun 3/80 running SunOS 4.1 and am having a problem with it. I can use it no problem, but one of my users get's a permission denied message when he tries to run it. At first he was having trouble reading his .screen directory (i.e. he would get a permission denied) most recently, he got the following error: %screen bind: Permission denied This is while he was logged on to a diskless client with his home dir NFS mounted from the server (if that is important). Screen is set-uid and owned by root (the root of the server, that is). Finally, is there any way screen could crash my machine. My system has crashed twice recently, and both times were soon after this user attempted to run screen. Any help would be appreciated. -- Adam Carlson | It's good to know that if I behave acarlson@math.umass.edu | strangely enough, society will take Statistical Consulting Center | full responsibility for me.
