Message-ID: <fenCG972C.12J@netcom.com> Organization: NETCOM On-line Communication Services (408 241-9760 guest) X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.1 PL8] Date: Wed, 10 Nov 1993 02:03:47 GMT Lines: 14 sometimes when my slip link goes down, I can't kill the slattach (even as root!) and I must re-boot the system to re-connect to the net. to make matters worse, it doesn't happen every time. one thing I notice is that 'ps' shows a state of "PE" where the "E" means it's trying to exit (but assumably, can't). any ideas? -- Fen Labalme for EFF info, email <eff@eff.org> Broadcatch Technologies for LPF info, email <league@ai.mit.edu> <fen@netcom.com> for CPSR info, email <cpsr@cpsr.org> 415/731-1174 protect your freedoms!
