I have a next running 3.0 and I'm experiencing something rather annoying
with rcs. Everytime I use /usr/bin/co to check out a file, a background
process is created as shown by the following output from ps :
kambiz@parkcity: [ ~ ] $ ps -augxwww | grep kambiz
kambiz 9647 0.5 1.8 2.47M 432K ? S 0:02 -bash (bash)
kambiz 9424 0.0 1.8 2.47M 440K ? S 0:05 -bash (bash)
daemon 11176 0.0 0.8 1.52M 208K ? S 0:00 /usr/lib/rcssnoop co
1.5r 1b 0f 5t 92.11.11.14.16.31c 92.11.11.15.05.03o kambiz
Makefile,v
kambiz 11189 0.0 0.8 1.52M 208K ? S 0:00 grep kambiz
What is rcssnoop????? The thing is that this process stays around just
long enough to spew into the window where the co command was started the
following output :
kambiz@parkcity: [ ~/tmp/testing ] $ RCS logfile /private/adm/rcs.log
seems permanently locked.
Please alert system administrator
I also have the most recent dist of rcs by GNU and it doesn't behave like
this. The funny thing is that this behavior only happens on one machine.
Other 3.0 machines aren't as naughty.
Has anyone else seen this happen? Any tips would be appreciated.
If you would rather e-mail, I will post responses.
