Hi *SM-ers! After a long time I tried logging on to my test TSM server, but I couldn't. I canceled the server (kill -9) and started it in the foreground.
General Unix advice: Always do a simple 'kill <PID>' on a process (which is equivalent to 'kill -TERM <PID>'), which gives the process the opportunity to exit cleanly. 'kill -9' is a SIGKILL, which cannot be intercepted by the process, so clean termination cannot be performed, which can result in bad stuff (technical term).
It seemed to be related to an unexpected system date...
