Things remain like this until I kill cvs through ^C. `piperd' means a process is reading from a pipe. In your case, maybe reading from a pipe is causing a hang. Of course, the inverse of piperd is pipewt, I believe, which means the process is writing to a pipe. - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
