While delivering a Unidata System Administration course today
I noticed an interesting feature of udstat. I had a simple program the
contained a loop that performed one read and one write. The loop was
traversed
100 times.
udstat reported this as 200 reads and 600 writes. I ran this
Is anyone using (running) uvdlockd and, if so, does it clean up after these
redundant disconnections?

Could you provide an example program of it not working? Which version
of UV? I am unaware of the problem you describe.
There is a bug with REVREMOVE, (reverse-remove through a dynamic array).
It was partially fixed at 9.6 or 10.0 (I forget when), but not quite.

We have a similar issue here. I don't know how the rd and wt figures are
calculated, but I have always received results similar to yours. Just to
verify, change your loop from 100 to 1000, 5000 and 1. On our system,
we received the following:
100 loops - 60 wt
1000 loops - 600 wt

I have the opposite. My UniObjects connections don't work, but the

This all seemed to coincide with my screwing about with pam.conf so I

I think this is similiar to nfauser, in that it needs a valid
unix account, but not an active account. If that makes sense. The security
would be on the application side. Basically the account would be for use
by the application, but not able to access the system directly.

Have a look at your pam.config file. I'll bet that UniObjects is not
using the same mechanism to connect as a telnet connection does. That
could mean the OS is not locking down all means of connection when a
login goes rogue.
I'm more certain now that this is an issue of OS and documentation
Back before starting to use UniObjects, I remember reading something about
UniObjects not logging in like a normal user would log in. I didn't realize
that it meant UniObjecs was 'above the law' in terms of logins. That's a
potentially scary issue!
Sounds like people are beginning to grasp the
Not that I'm the best at straddling different versions of MV or the underlying
OS, but here's a trick that I use for all of my varied clients.
I create a separate program file that holds lots of subroutines that represent

the original problem sure does.

The only way that I can see to close this hole is for UniObjects to have an

highest level, this should restrict the client so that all he can do is
