Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
finger cstng
(or finger any_user_logged_in_on_the_machine)
What's wrong:
I get a segmentation fault at the end and it
generates a core dump.
I have reported this problem serveral times before and I have
found out a few more things.
There isn't a core dump right after I log in to the work
station. After I've done a few things, it will occur.
Below is a history of the commands that I typed. Before the
first command below, I have done the following :
xmh &
xrn &
setenv LPROPT "-h"
unlimit
finger atherton@vax1.mankato.msus.edu
