SEE MESSAGE : 'Can anyone verify a core dump on /sbin/mingetty' for the original post The reason why there is no core dump from /sbin is because I didn't have write access - should have noticed that but there you go. Ok, bit more information: This problem is positive in the following systems: * note there could and probably are more but I've only had word of the following systems being tested Red-Hat 6.0 onwards (not tested any before) upto and including 7.2 Mandrake 8.0 2.4.3-20mdksmp (presumably similar to redhat here) turbolinux 6.0 SCO unix 5.0.5 (this information was quickly gathered by several people; thanks everyone)
Slackware 7.0 (maybe 8.0) uses agetty, which is not vunerable, as far as I can tell. It just spits out a usage error. -- Bill Weiss
