I am using a USB<--->serial adapter...when I unplug it from USB the machine reboots itself and leaves the cluster. (This wouldn't be too bad if the battery that stores its settings hadn't died over a decade ago) Anyone else have this problem? You are making the console think it's seeing a <BREAK> being typed. How are your switches set on the console bulkhead? -- VAXman- A Bored Certified VMS Kernel Mode Hacker VAXman(at)TMESIS(dot)ORG Well I speak to machines with the voice of humanity.
