LISTSERV@SUVM has been running a database search job for the last 8 hours. The job did a "SEARCH 'windows' in NOVELL" which completed in 5 minutes elasped time. A "SEARCH remote" was then started which if I understand things should subset the results of the first SEARCH. Well it's been running for 8 hours. Two questions: 1) Has anyone else experienced anything like this? 2) Is there some way I can interrupt LISTSERV without loosing any/all interactive commands it may have stacked up waiting for that "SEARCH remote" to complete?
