-87- Why can't 'cformat' format floptical disks, and/or why can't 'datman' play audio DATs?

Date: 16 Mar 1996 00:00:01 EST

  You've installed patch 1096, which breaks cformat(1M) and datman(1).
  You really should have patch 1048 or later, which fixes a bad security
  hole in the objectserver (see the security FAQ), so you should either
  use mkfp(1M) instead of cformat and turn off mediad(1M) when you want
  to use datman, or back down to patch 1048 (but see above).
