I usually use trn but it's ages since I looked at tin so I'd like to get it working if possible. The problem is probably caused by my active file which is ~6500 lines long, we have a *full* feed here! Is there a parameter somewhere within the kernel that I can tweak to increase the memory limit? I have looked but can't see anything obvious. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, could this possibly be a problem with tin? I don't think this is the case cos the same version of tin works on the same size history file on SCO. Any help/advice appreciated.
