I can't even do a kernel compile without getting signal 6... They all look reasonable... Just for fun, try and compile things using csh. I zeroed in on the limits issue, because one of our shell users had this problem with pine and bash, and it was a memory / limits issue as pine was going bonkers trying to decode a large mime attachment, and would die with a signal 6. Doubt thats the issue, but you might as well try because it could be some bizzare thing with bash... ---Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Tancsa, tel 01.519.651.3400 Network Administrator, mike@sentex.net Sentex Communications www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
