Hello,
I have had a network mishap at home (basically, my ISP convinced me to upgrade my router firmware...) and I have had to rebuild my NAT tables from scratch. Now I see I can't connect to neither SG1 nor GORVAX, which are the sites I used to link thru using the multinet gateway. I see I can SET HOST to GORVAX (but I somehow remember its multinet gateway has been down for some time), but I can't SETHOST nor TELNET to SG1.
For the time being I'm using Johhny's bridge to hook up to Hecnet (thanks Johhny for not deleting my entry :)), but I'd like to get back the multinet link. Is that a holiday related downtime, or my setup is really screwed? (I'm NATTing port 700 UDP to my VAX... I think that was all I had to do to use the Multinet stuff...).

Someone here made the mistake of throwing out a batch of Cisco gear

One was a Catalyst 2900, and the other was a Catalyst 2960G, (with the
optical delivery items for fiber-optics), and still another was a
2500, (which is a classic amongst that family I believe.), and then a
3600, the other happened to be a 2550 series unit.
How hard is it to identify them and confirm what I rescued?
Quite easy.
2500s are ancient, but still very useful. 2900s, not so much. 3600s still
go for more serious money; if they threw them in the trash, they're idiots.
2550s also fetch some money.
Just check the fans in the 2500s. Remember how MINE died!
I can help you go through their hardware configurations and such, crack
passwords for access, etc etc when the time comes.
I can too, but I m not too familiar with Layer 3 switches. I d love one to
play with though.

Hello!
Okay Cory how quickly can you get here, and remember to bring
everything you need, and everything you don t.
Not very quickly if you don t have automated cable-installing robots and terminal servers. ;)
Seriously though I've seen these items, ah, mentioned on Amazon whilst
searching for items that wear an AUI port, and even an entire rack of
gear was shown.
Gotta love AUI gear.

Cory, you could try to dissable asynchronous IO (SET NOASYNCH) and see if the crash goes away. Anyways, I think this should be reported as a simh issue in the project github.

"tq" is a tape drive, I think, so the thing to do would be to find the tape emulation code where that message is being reported and stick some breakpoints into the spot where that happens.
The message you're seeing is for the Unix error code EAGAIN, which normally shows up with non-blocking I/O -- if the operation would have resulted in blocking, you get EAGAIN instead if you asked for non-blocking mode. For example, a read when the data isn't available yet. This may be a case of setting non-blocking mode but not handing the resulting error returns correctly in all cases.

That s what I was thinking. Issue persists with both -O2 and -O0 so it s not GCC being stupid (for once).
This is latest git issue isn t present in 3.9.

I can't even begin to find what would cause this...is it a bug in SIMH or have I found the weirdest IPC error yet?
Is it an underlying I/O error on the disk?
