[SUMMARY] sleep does not sleep

Well, apologies on two accounts, first, it was 2.6, and I didn't notice I
was posting in HTML the 1st time. Maybe those two explain why I got only one
reply. I finally sought advice from Sun support. The kernel was -05, they
advised installing the latest recommended patch cluster, and that fixed the
problem.

Subject: sleep does not sleep


I am having a strange problem with a newly installed Ultra 10, w/ 2.7, the
first symptom was an attempted telnet connection would close after about 7
seconds, with Connection closed. Now I have noticed that the machine is
running too fast, i.e. I type 'sleep 5', I should get the prompt back in 5
seconds, but it comes back instantly. Anyone seen this before? TIA, and I
will summarize.
