1. Is this actually a behavior change?

2. What's the right thing to tell a private ws owner about such
things?  (In particular, I believe he's using an SGI: should we
discourage leaving Netscape running given things like the AFS-hosage
mystery, tell him how to get longer tickets, something else?)

Thanks,

Abby

On the private workstation in my office, I have been in the habit of leaving 
netscape open overnight (along with other software that I use on a regular
basis).  Ever since the last OS and netscape upgrade, I find that netscape
crashes overnight.  I presume this has something to do with the expiration of
kerberos tickets, and that newer netscape release needs those for some
reason.  I have no trouble restarting netscape, but it is annoying to have to
do so.  Is there something I need to turn off so that netscape won't crash
every night?
Thanks in advance.
