This message came in to olc today.  I've seen ones like it occasionally.  Do
you think it might be possible to make the xrnlock error message more 
explicit?  ie, tell people what exactly to type?

The computer responds "An XRn of yours is running on m16-034-4 as process
19097.  If it is no longer running, remove the file /mit/USER/.xrnlock""
When I try to remove this file, it responds "Remove only works from
the same shell in which you typed setup."  My question is: "How do I remove
this XRN?
