3046.1You need a patchUTRTSC::HELDENMon Jul 09 1990 12:1322
 Hello,

 This is a known problem and there is a patch for it,
 called   DECW$SRV02_053
 The patch information tells us the following :


This patch fixes two problems with DECwindows on the VAXstation 3100/SPX:

 1) Running certain applications and then quitting the session
 cause memory corruption in the server.  Once memory is corrupted,
 the server may crash, or applications may see XIO errors, or the
 SPX may hang.

 2) Logging into a session, AND quitting, four times causes
 the the SPX to hang on the fourth login.

 You can get the patch from your local Software Support Centre

 Succes,  Mark
