Hi,
I think Laura has mentioned that moira queries would sometimes crash
her computer? This morning, one crashed mine.
My goal was to check whether a user had multiple accounts.
I ran "stanley cmylau" which worked fine.
I followed with "qy guai #########" (her MIT ID) and pressed Enter.
My computer froze. The mouse pointer doesn't move, the screen doesn't
refresh. I can't ssh to it or ping it.
After waiting a while, I rebooted the computer.
I'm not sure how to debug this, but am sending the mail to help
track the issue.
Let me know if any other information would be useful.
My office desktop is a HP Compaq dc5100 SFF, at Athena version 9.4.46
-Jacob
