[comp.unix.ultrix] problems with ipcs

todd@uvmark.uucp (Todd Cooper) (12/13/90)

Has anybody out there in netland noticed that when doing an ipcs
ala system V shared memory/semaphore/message queue utility, 
Utrix reports the keys shared memory id in 2's complement decimal 
rather than a more usable form of hexadecimal.  
It believe that this is an OS bug
since it reports in hexadecimal on perhaps 30-40 other system V
compliant systems that we have in house.

Does anybody else have this problem?  Does anyone have an e-mail 
address to dec to report the problem?

Thanks..
