>But does your program do anything that only a superuser can do?  Like use
>F$Permit, or try to set the user id, etc?

No, not at all. Well, not right away. In any event, since the program has the
GHOST bit set, it should still load into memory before it craps out. I've done
some more sleuthing...on my mm/1 I can duplicate the problem with other
programs which, for sure, don't do anything funny. Don't know if there is
anything magic about user 31.0, but try setting a program to that user and then
log in as user 5.5. You should get the 164 error. However, on my MVME running
os9 3.0 I don't get the error. Looks like MW fixed something???
