Could you have a look at news:33023903.2594@callisto.si.usherb.ca or point in in the direction of someone who can help!? Macperl is hanging my server - no matter which script I use from the most complicated to the easiest screen-reply scripts. Many scripts stay open (in the finder menu) on the server's HD for hours or days and just sit there doing nothing. When the sysadmin goes to shut them down, often he cannot and has to restart the machine. Could you help. I know this is a very general question, but I know I can't be hte first person to have this complaint. If I could give you more details to lead us to an answer I would. It's on a power pc, webstar 1.0, system 7.6 Signed Banished from my server to a lonely hub until I debug this ugh! ___________________________________________________________________________ \\|// http://callisto.si.usherb.ca/eslcafe (o o) eslcafe@callisto.si.usherb.ca ------------oOOo-(_)-oOOo------------------------------------- John Taylor-Johnston Conseiller pˇdagogique en informatique / Educational Technology Curriculum Advisor English Language Summer School Facultˇ des lettres et sciences humaines Universitˇ de Sherbrooke 2500, boulevard Universitˇ Sherbrooke (Quˇbec) J1K 2R1 1-800-667-0904 (Quˇbec Only) 819 821-8000 (Ext. 7940) http://www.callisto.si.usherb.ca/eslcafe http://www.callisto.si.usherb.ca/elsspress http://www.antoine-girouard.qc.ca/English ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
