During troubleshooting of some communications problems (specifically token-ring errors) we discovered that CFINT01 had taken over the entire system on a NON-Server box, 95% of CPU and over 95% of system memory. Discussing this with support they indicated there there are other tasks assigned to CFINTnn jobs besides 'CPU Burn' and some parts of communications recovery is one of these tasks. Therefore I wouldn't dismiss CFINTnn on non-server systems, it just isn't 'playing govorner' on those systems. - Larry "Al Barsa, Jr." wrote: > > At 04:08 PM 11/6/00 -0500, you wrote: > > Chuck, > > With all due respect, you should not be getting this on 4XX, 5XX or 6XX > hardware.
