      Hi guys,

      What have I likely to upset or killed here?

      I am still running 1.2.2, I can ssh to my gateway OK, and get the console prompt. But when I try to drop to a shell choosing option 8) I get this message from the SSH menu.

      /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /bin/tcsh: Shared object has no run-time symbol table

      Hopefully it's something silly.

          Yep, thanks. Did the trick… once I fixed the machine post-upgrade. I blame this more on my old dodgy hardware rather than pfsense though.
