Thanks to everyone who commented on my problem concerning the floating point bug in Microport that caused a kernel panic. Realizing that this is a problem far beyond our collective scope, we have taken measures to insure the security of our system from would-be systems crashers. I would greatly appreciate it, however, if anyone who comes across definative evidence pertaining to this bug, or a fix to it, please post it, or at the least, mail me the information. I am sorry that some poorly chosen diction and choices as to posting have touched off such a heated debate. I aplogize to everyone out there who has said "What an idiot!" after reading my message or a follow-up posting. This was not my intent. My intent was (and is) the security and well-being of our system. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm sorry. I think we might have | Erin M.
