I just installed 2.2.6, after severely mangling 2.2.5 in the upgrade process. So I just decided to wipe the disk and start from scratch. Now, something new and annoying happens. Look: linuxbox:~> telnet freebsd Trying 29.18.92.24... Connected to freebsd.somewhere.com. Escape character is '^]'. inetd in realloc(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense. (freebsd.somewhere.com) (ttyp2) login: At first I just thought that my linux box was doing something weird, but this happens if I telnet to the machine from any number of non-linux machines, either on the local net or from elsewhere. It doesn't cause any real problems for me, but it is annoying. I looked in the mailing list archives for someone with a similar problem, and found some person who got the same error I got, but then it appeared that he couldn't log in at all. I can at least log in, I just get the error. Does anyone know how to fix this, or what the problem is? Thanks. - -- -- --- --- --- ---- ---- ----- ----- ----- ----- --|= = = = = = = = = = Jeffrey Dunitz (orpheus@cray.com) 612-683-7266 | Yadda yadda yadda Information Services | Nobody reads these Cray Research, a Silicon Graphics Company = == === === =| things anyway....
