Date: Tue, 25 Mar 1997 18:37:50 +0300 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <3337F14B.41C6@iil.intel.com> Hi, I've an application written in pvm. (v 3.3.11) and running on RS6K machine (AIX 3.2.5). When I tried to respawn a task on a new remote host, that was up, but had a problem to complete the login process, the rsh process to that machine was stalled and created a defunct child. I had to kill the rsh myself. Does anyone knows if pvm checks timeouts of rsh? Is there a patch for this bug? -- Regards, Ilan Harari. ============================================================= iharari@iil.intel.com --------------------- IDC / MCBS Software Solutions Group Tel: 972-4-8656074 Fax: 972-4-8655999 Intel Israel (74), Ltd
