System name:		lycus
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.2A
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?

Update my workstation.

What's wrong:

1) I ran update_ws, then aborted to save some files.  When I ran it
again, I got the message "empty text" before it printed the file names.
This comes from the kernel, and appears in my /usr/adm/messages.

2) /etc/rc.conf has a line:
MRUPDATE=false;		export SMSUPDATE	# SMS update daemon

What should have happened:

1) figure out why this message appears, or nuke it.

2) The "SMSUPDATE" should be MRUPDATE


Please describe any relevant documentation references:
