First - it is a bad mistake to install the software as root.  The
installation process creates file that must be read/write to all aips
users and, when you are root, the group is also root and so no one
will be able to read/write these files.  I suggest that you do - as
root - a chown and chgrp on the entire aips directory tree to assign
all files to some account and some group.  All aips users should then
be part of that group.  You need root to change the /etc/services
file, but that is really all.

As for the aips TV please send me all messages that follow the

aips

command.
