Hi, 

We have a private SUN station, I think we are 
using the wrong shell.

OLC told me that we're supposed to use
/bin/csh

but we are using 
/bin/athena/tcsh


I think the shell is specified when the machine
is installed. We've been using this since
Oct 3 (that's what my entry in passwd.local says).

I have also been having a segmentation fault
when I finger myself and I get a core dump.

OLC couldn't figure out the problem but they
said it could be because we are running 
wrong shell here.

So, are we using the wrong shell and
how do we fix this ??

Thanks.

Christine
