We have discovered a bug in 3.2 that affects logins on Power Series multiprocessor systems. It seems that systems with multiple CPU's that have continuous jobs running in the background constantly (ours is doing molecular modelling) can fail to permit the login process to complete on the console, apparently due to the process required for the login not always being guaranteed to run on CPU 0. SGI's answer for this was to back out to 3.1G. We installed 3.2 twice on this machine already, and someday get to do it again. I'm ticked! ------------------------------------------------------------- Mahlon Stacy Internet: mcs@mayo.edu Mayo Foundation Rochester, MN 55905 Minnesota Regional Network
