After logging on and before doing "aux/listen tcp" I ran

	"ndb/cs -n"

to attempt to work around that but a "cat /dev/sysname"
showed it still to be empty.

My /rc/bin/termrc has the default entry to run ndb/cs
(I think). So I guess that would have been done at
boot too.

Any idea why "ndb/cs -n" is not setting sysname?

Bill
