Hello, Only recently I've run into some problems with executing C-shell script, when they are not on the 'local' system. ( A apollo distributed filesystem is considered local in this. ) Examples: We have 1 SUN which has an NFS-connection to a DN4000,SR97 system. Now if i want to execute a script in an NFS-directory if fails without commenting on any reason as to why. Executing the script from a directory which is on the local disk works perfectly. Also executing the script when it is on the local disk, but your current directory is on an NFS-disk, fails. Example 2: This one is even more bizar. Apollo has type files, and on an SR97 version system ascii files have the type uasc. On an SR10 system normal ascii files are 'unstruct'. If one now imports an script of the type 'unstruct', then the C-shell refuses to execute that script. Has any one seen this behaviour before? My opinion is that it's somewhere in the C-shell code, since but SUN and Apollo act this strangely.
