Subject: Who is this "none" character?
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1993 12:43:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19931020164340.CI1yNrYWiqWMXpJJBCjs-wgzeiMIDWqDsKvBaZ3XFno@z> (raw)

Greetings!

We are running plan9 on both pc and sparc machines.  We also have
a cpu server (sparc) up and running.  When the cpu server is running,
a "who" on the file server, will show that both "adm" and "bootes" are
running.  Fine.  Frequently, this same inquirery will show 
"none" and "adm"!  When this happens, the distributed system is *very*
sluggish.  We have to reboot the cpu server to get rid of "none".

What is happening?  What is the significance of "none".  Why does it take
over bootes' place?  We believe that an error from the an ethernet
card may cause this.  What is the reason for having "none" run at all?

Thanks in advance for any info.
