I think I prefer the old code where it told you too many times on the
console. This afternoon when my tickets and tokens expired on my 6.4R
VS3100, I was given *NO* notice that this happened. Instead it just
didn't let me write any more files. This is a serious problem.

The code now does a uprintf(), instead of a printf(), so you may have
looked in the wrong window. Prior to this, on private machines, or on
dialups, people did not notice that their tokens expired because the
kernel syslog went to the console, as opposed to the user.
If it truly did not send you a message, then can you reproduce this? If
anything, it will be a bug in the kernel uprintf() routine.
