Date: 24 Feb 1997 04:07:46 GMT Organization: University of California, Santa Cruz Lines: 10 Message-ID: <5er46i$iti@darkstar.ucsc.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: ese.ucsc.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 BETA-950824-16colors PL0] Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:35982 A user on one of the systems I administrate managed to heartily crash 2.1.5-Stable by running tin. It seemed pretty wierd to me, but it happend... He ran tin with the option that lets you dump out an an entire newsgroup to disk... Anyone else had this problem? Anyone feel like trying to replicate this problem? I haven't been able to do a full analisys of what's wrong with the machine because I'm remote, but whenI get some more info, I'll let everyone know..
