System name: george2-sun
Type and version: SPARC/Classic 7.7K (5 update(s) to same version)
Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
finger cstng
NOTE : I sent a bug report about this yesterday and
I now have some new info.
What's wrong:
I get a core dump when I finger myself from this machine.
{segmentation fault}
I think our finger program is bad.
<159>george2-sun:~ _Christine_ >> which finger
/usr/athena/bin/finger
Someone who also uses this machine told me that he also gets
the same error when he fingers himself from this machine.
He started getting this error soon after he updated his
finger info. The finger info was never updated either.
What should have happened:
NO core dump / segmentation fault.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Please also refer to the bug report that I sent to
you guys yesterday.
Thanks.
