I have the 8.3 attach repeatably bus-erroring, but I can't figure out what's
wrong because the only way I can get it to repeat is during my login.
I've tried numerous tricks to try to get it to dump core, but it needs
to be suid to get to a point where it bus errors, and it won't dump
core while suid unless I am root, and I can't repeat the problem as
root. If you're interested in a demonstration sometime, I'll show
you. The only useful information I have gained is that it only
happens when being run -Padd and it happens after it tries to create
the symlink in /mit.
I am also getting the following whenever I try to send mail from
florey. sendmail.cf has been completely rewritten, so I cannot begin
to guess what is wrong.
athena{30}% Mail yak
Subject: foo
bar
.
EOT
athena{31}% Warning: .cf version level (8) exceeds sendmail version
8.8.8+Sun functionality (7): Bad file number
The mail never does get delivered
