Hello,

I installed ECO Kit SSRT0359_OSF1032C for the syslog problem reported
by CERT CA-95:13 on the following;

2100 5/250 running Digital UNIX 3.2c
2100 5/275 running Digital UNIX 3.2c
1000 4/200 running Digital UNIX 3.2a

I noticed when booting both 2100's I received the following
error messages;

Preserving editors files
sh: 432 Memory fault -core dumped
...
Successful SIA initiation

I noticed 2 memory fault errors on one 2100 and about 6 on the other. I
did not watch the 1000. I noticed on all three machines that sendmail
continuously core dumped in /var/spool/mqueue and at times caused the
sendmail queue to grow.

I then moved the old /usr/shlib/libc.so back into place on all three systems
and restarted sendmail. The sendmail problems went away. Anyone else
experience this problem?

ps. The three systems send and receive around 180,000 email a day.
ps. I use DEC standard sendmail.
