(This looks better in fixed width font).
I am using NT4 SP3. I downloaded coolview this morning.
I am running a job that executes thousands of processes. It doesn't seem
to matter whether I run this job interactively or in the background.
The job is essentially a script with lots of calls to "make". After a
while, make refuses to start any more processes, just echoing the error
"waitforjob: no children".
After this happens, the output of ps (the ps with coolview) looks as
follows,
(Incidentally, the date is on the PC is correct at, Sun May 10 10:12:36
1998).

The only thing I can do now is reboot (Incidentally, is there an easy
way of doing this? I am logged on to our gnuwin32 server from Home using
telnet. I am actually rebooting the remote NT machine using a network
manager, ntmanage. A command line reboot would be great).
