We upgraded our machines to NeXTSTEP3.0 this weekend and are having  
problems with TeX.  Basically, we rebuilt our server from the 3.0 CD-ROM  
and installed all the extended packages, including  
/NextCD/Packages/NeXTTeX.pkg.  In principle, our is a vanilla 3.0 system.

Unfortunately, whenever you try to tex or latex a file, you get the  
following:

augustus:/Users/ray%tex temp.tex
This is CTeX, NeXT Version 3.1a
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
augustus:/Users/ray%

Well I'm stymied too.  Given that users with deadlines are clamoring for  
tex (really loudly :-() any help folks can give would be greatly  
appreciated....
