------> 8MB memory NeXT_1.0a hard disk <------ About 24 hrs ago our cube started exibiting the following strange behavior: Load average ~2 when idle. 100% CPU utilization all the time. Going thru processes like crazy (up to pid 3000 1 minute after reboot!). init using ~33% of CPU time. Lots of <defunct> processes. Way too many System Calls. Way too many Calls to Trap. Way too many Address Faults. I tried the following: (all to no avail) Reboot. Power down. Boot from distribution optical. Boot from distribution optical with net disconnected. Disconnect SCSI disk and boot from optical. Disconnect optical disk and boot from SCSI. Any ideas or previous experience with this problem? It runs fine, just slow. And I'm very worried about it. Thanks. Paul O'Neill pvo@oce.orst.edu Coastal Imaging Lab OSU--Oceanography Corvallis, OR 97331 503-754-3251

Cube is Well. SA is embarrassed. In enabling rsh's for root I changed /etc/ttys: ttyp0 none network to: ttyp0 none network on secure when it should have been: ttyp0 none network secure BIG MISTAKE. I think init was going crazy trying to spawn 'none' on ttyp0.
