I've noticed a strange problem on a platform running SCO Unix 3.2.4.2 with TCP v1.2.1. If I try a rcp or rcmd (also known as rsh on some other varieties of Unix) from another machine onto this platform, it would just hang. I found that there was an outgoing rcp that was "stuck" (stayed on the system for several hours) on this platform and as soon as I killed it off, everything would return to normal. -I already checked streams usage- no overflows/failures. -Rlogin and telnet still worked even when rcp/rcmd failed. Anyone have some ideas as to why this is happening? -Doug apollo1@netcom.com apollo@world.std.com
