System name: e40-008-11
Type and version: CVAXSTAR 7.1H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
Work on Athena-vax.dialup from rice-chex.ai
rice-chex went down and I was disconnected.
What's wrong:
rice-chex came back fairly promptly, so I went back to Athena-vax.dialup
and discovered that my disconnected process had been killed and some
work had been lost.
What should have happened:
It would be nice if there were a grace period before disconnected processes
were killed.
