I'd need to see the "/usr/adm/weekly.bck" script as well, but I'll bet a nickel
that you're using the /dev/rst0 (or whatever number) as the device you back up
to.  If you use /dev/nrst0 instead, the tape will *not* rewind when dump is
completed.  (You *do* use dump, don't you?)  Then at the end of the backup
script, give the command "mt -f /dev/rst0 rewoffl" to rewind and eject the tape.

I have experienced this on several Suns.  Including a 3/50 running
4.0.3, a Sparc2 running 4.1, and an ELC running 4.1.1:  When I am in
the "new" mode at the rom monitor, and type sync, the machine panics,
dumps core and reboots.  Is there any reason for this?  Why should the
option be offered when the machines panic?

Previously I posted a request for help with creating
a trivial example of the functionality of dlopen.
I received several responses which included example
programs to exhibit the desired behavior, but these
programs encounter the same error as my own. 

So now I think the problem lies not in the code or
procedures I used, but in my system configuration.
The specific error message I get is:

	dlopen: stub interception failed
	IOT trap (core dumped)

Does anyone have any ideas why this happens?
Thanks for your help!

 Hello all,

	Anyone here familiar with SUNOS streams programming ?
 
 I'm writting a pushable streams module that acknowledges a
 remote serial device. The write side of the stream is also
 busy shifting data from a SUMOS application to the remote
 device. I'd like to ensure the acknowldegement char gets to
 the front of any app data on any streams queues. What is
 wrong with the following code from a read put module ?

 queue_t * wq;
 msblk_t * ack_msg;

    wq = OTHERQ(q);     /* the mate, write, queue of this module */
    while( wq->q_next != NULL ) wq = wq->q_next; /* find first q */
    insq( wq, wq->q_first, ack_msg );/* insert msg at start of wq */

 Any idea ?

 Thanks Mike Webster

Date: 13 Apr 92 19:45:04 GMT
Distribution: usa
Organization: Octel Corporation



I have just received my brand spanking new telebit t3000 -yippee.
Unhappily, I ripped out a perfectly working Trailblazer plus and
replaced it whole hog with the T3000, and even after setting up
'leventy million configurations it still doesnt talk to all the other
places I used to talk to.. AGHHHH.

Originally my TB+ on a PC running Interactive Unix talked happily with a 
T2500 connected to  SUN -sharing files and mail and all things good.
Then the sense of underwhelmed power must have flooded my brain and I bought a
T3000. 

After reconfiguring the t2500 so that it almost doesnt talk to other modems,
and frankensteining one of the "standard" T3000 configurations, I can
get a cu session going. However all my other mail links are broken,
and most importantly my newslink.

I cant expect all of these other people to change their modems for me ;-)
so questions ...

What is a good modem configuration for SUN running any of T 1000, T2500, TB+
What is a good modem configuration for PC/Unix box - ISC 3.2 Unix
running either a TB+ or aT3000? (ie what are all the nasty little switch
settings)

Do I have to wait for the PEP add ON? Do I just commit suicide now ???
How much does the uucp -g protocol affect anything else I use the modem for ??

The sun has plain vanilla serial port .. THe ISC box is using a bell HUB
multiport adapter (stop laughing) }>) Running at 9600 Baud. I tried 19200
and it barfed on me.

last .... I seem to get a humongous number of alarms while uucp is rtunning
what might be the cause of this -ie to get about 5 MB of data across
I might have 400 or so alarms -which does nothing except waste 
bandwidth.

Thanks in advance for any help - please e-mail, and at least the configurations 
I will post to the net. (after trying them)
--Oh I tried the technical help line at Telebit, and it was pretty good (ie got me
off dead center) -However they are woefully understaffed -it took them 24 hours
to even get back to me to help me work on the issues.  I figure that the net can
get back to me in 24 hours -too, and I  will have many suggestions to try ,not
just one..

For printing text, an HP Laserjet with a serial port should be fine;
but for printing fancier stuff you should probably invest in either a
Postscript printer or a parallel card.  E.g. you should be able to
combine a parallel card, a Laserjet, and NeWSprint.  I haven't tried
this newfangled NeWSprint stuff myself (we still use a trusty Apple

Of course.  Go SCSI.  (This is not just about Solaris; it's about all OSes).
I don't know much about EISA but it sounds like an improvement over the
PC AT bus (why glorify it with the name ISA?).

On a hunch, I changed security-mode=command to security-mode=none
(contra the man page, which has this option listed as "secure"), then
back. Changing back to some security mode caused a password to be

Followup-To: comp.sys.sun.misc
Organization: University of Nevada, Reno  Campus Computing Services

We're having some trouble accessing DOS-formatted CD-ROM's on an Ultrix
server via PC-NFS 3.5:  The PC seems to be able to mount the Ultrix
server's CD-ROM drive with no problems, but when we try a directory listing
from the PC, the CD-ROM directory shows up as empty (i.e., "dir" on that
device produces a "file not found" message.)

If a Sun (vs. Ultrix) server is used, the same DOS-formatted CD-ROM can be
mounted from the same PC with no problems.  We also don't have this problem
with UFS (vs. DOS-formatted) CD-ROMS on the Ultrix server, nor do we have
problems mounting other (disk) filesystems from the DEC server.

The original (with no CD-ROM mounted) permissions/ownership on the server's
/cdrom directory don't seem to make a difference.

Several PC's have been tried, all running PC-NFS 3.5.  The Ultrix server
is running Ultrix 4.2 (Rev 96).  Pcnfsd on the Ultrix server (a DECSystem
5000) is the one that came with PC-NFS 3.5.

Anyone know what's going wrong here?

Please respond via email, and I will summarize to the net.

Certainly people can *live* with a slow system.  Its really nice when
one doesn't have to.

Remember the I/O bottleneck problem is not limited to the disks.  It
is the same bus as the ethernet card, video card are on.  For example,
xsetroot with a 1/4 screen (400x600) image took 3.5 minutes when I
tried it.  Using a non-stipple root window is a test of patience on a
PC.  Copying files over the net is *slow*.  I recall 66k bytes/sec was
just about all I could squeeze out of the net.  Thats for data that
was in core.  Its slower if one has to get it from disk.

Sun does understand the importance of I/O and did a good job at making
sure that they didn't put any major bottlenecks in there.  I'm sure
that the PC crowd will have to follow suit if they are to be taken
seriously in the workstation market.
