Hi all... I am currently running V3.0.554 of eXcursion on an Alpha box and am pretty happy with it... for a while now I have noted this behavior and did not know what to make of it... On my Alpha NT box I have an application that is defined with the command (under the "applications" tab): /usr/bin/X11/color_xterm -sb -sl 1024 -fg grey -bg black -ls -title hobbes -n hobbes (all of this one one line of course :) )... what I found is that if I use the same command on a Win95 system I get a window that tells me that "this program has performed and illegal operation and will be shut down." If I shorted the command (i.e. delete a few of the options) the command executes fine... I have tried deleting one option and then another to find a conflict... but it seems more like a limitation on the length of the command... ANy ideas... if you like more detail I can provide it as this is something that I can reproduce at will on any Win95 box. For info the system that I am trying to launch off of is a Linux 2.0 machine. -John

It is an issue with the length of the command. Make sure that when you
define the "account" you select the "command interpreter" that is
appropriate for your environment. Do *not* choose "Any" since this
causes a much longer string to be sent to the rexec daemon.
I could swear I QARed this one, but now I'm not sure....
