System name: Paddington.MIT.EDU
Type and version: Ultra-60 8.3.27 (with mkserv)
Display type: ffb
Shell: /bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager: twm
What were you trying to do?
Run kermit on /dev/term/a
What's wrong:
lock directory isn't writable by users
What should have happened:
kermit should have run and been able to create
it's lock file in /var/spool/locks
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Is there any way to let kermit write to
/var/spool/locks safely?
