Sigh oh well seems i'm going back to > the good old method of guessing and praying :) Just a thought. On many UNIX systems core dumps are placed in a file named "core" in the current working directory. On FreeBSD the program name is prepended along with a period, so if program "foo" dumps core, you should look for a file "foo.core". If you're not used to that then you probably won't see the core dump files.... -Dave
