SCO Unix and Charisma

Dated 10.2.97 Index AB144

The above Information Release contains incorrect information.

It directs you to add an entry at the end of the interface script to ensure that printers continue to flow control when using direct printing, regardless of whether any printing via lp had been performed.

It has been found that this entry at the end of the interface script actually causes multiple "cat" processes to be created. Over a period of time these result in 'fork' failures as the maximum number of processes is reached.

To prevent this from occurring :-

(1) Strike through the last paragraph on page 2 of the above mentioned Information Release.

(2) Do not add the entry which is highlighted on the attached sheet.
