[daip] Aips freezing on remote computers

[Howard Powell]

Hi guys,

Is there a debug mode of aips where I can see what it is trying to do?  

My problem is, we have aips installed and working on one machine which
shares aips via NFS to the others in the group.  When it was first
installed, aips was working on all computers in the group - but it has
recently developed a problem where it freezes after the user logs in
with an aips ID number.  Only on the machine serving the nfs share with
aips on it does aips work correctly.

I'll attach a plain text log showing what I see, if you have any ideas
I'm happy to try them out.

As always, many thanks for your help.

Howard
