This is probably part of the same problem that resulted in bug report #1110, but the problem is sufficiently different from what was reported before that I decided to elaborate. Feel free to attach this to bug #1110 if that seems appropriate. You can duplicate this by doing tar tvf winfree:/dev/nrst0 when logged into hipshack as 'bdale', which will generation a segmentation violation core dump, while using tar tvf bdale@winfree:/dev/nrst0 works fine. Blech. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Message sent: From: iwj10@thor.cam.ac.uk (Ian Jackson) To: Bdale Garbee Subject: Bug#1750: Acknowledgement (was: tar doesn't handle default remote arguments) In-Reply-To: <199510240606.AAA05478@chunks.gag.com> References: <199510240606.AAA05478@chunks.gag.com> Thank you for the problem report you have sent regarding Debian GNU/Linux.
