What went wrong?
in the console I got:
13:23 Waiting for workstation to finish activating...Workstation activation failed to finish normally.
13:25 done.
13:25 XLogin: child 9078 exited
13:25 Athena Server (sun4) Version 8.2.0 Fri May 8 00:15:28 EDT 1998
and all zgrams were in funny fonts.
Yo, got any documentation, or other info?
I found the following suspicious file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 26 01:46 /var/athena/attach_dev-sun4sys-82
logging out and back in failed to reproduce the activation messages.
The zephyr font problem went away when I re-took 8.2.0, so I'm willing
to chalk it up to a version skew problem.
