Hi Frank,
    um.... I have POSIX running on my 3k but not playing with SAMBA yet...and
nope... I don't have to re-boot the 3k (series 957) ???

    Now, I have had to recover from power fails when the Willamette River
flooded out the power grid for downtown Portland last year hehehe

Well, after spending more time re-booting the 3000 the last 3 months
than I had in the previous 25 years :(, I've come to a startling
conclusion.  Now that we have POSIX on the machine, we have to treat
it like any other toycomputer and reboot it at least once a day.

Has any one else come to this conclusion?  In my 31+ years of experience
with -hp- computers, I have previously only rebooted in case of direct
lightning strikes, errant fork lifts, and secretarys that spilled their
coffee in the cpu/disc drives.  I don't recall ever a general malady
that required something as drastic a rebooting.  Could it be that one of
these new commers to the 3K have imported the dreaded memory leak
syndrome?  Comments?
