About a week ago local domain name changes were made on our
Sparc cluster (we are running SunOS Release 4.1.1).
Since that time I am unable to run emacs on one particular
machine, the others are ok. When I try to load emacs I lose
all response to the operating system. No command works and I
must get back to the terminal concentrator and start over.

I have checked in my .login and .cshrc and see nothing odd.
I disabled my .emacs and still have the problem.

I am not very familiar with unix so if you have a suggestion
please take this into account. Of course, it may not be a 
unix problem.
