Two things have changed since the last time I tried to use it... one I setup a firewall with ipfw and two i upgraded to 4 stable. I ran a buildkernel and buildworld today on the machine.. here's the uname output: uname -a FreeBSD ns2.foolishgames.net 4.9-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE #3: Thu Sep 18 10:54:20 PDT 2003 laffer1@ns2.foolishgames.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ns2 i386 Any ideas what could be the problem? I tried disabling the firewall and it still core dumped. I first noticed it on sendmail.org's ftp, and tried it on my own as well. Looking at the core dump file, it complains about writing to a file, there is an error with a call to getline(), and a buffer overflow writing the history file. Did anything change in the c libraries in 4.9 that could cause this? I did tried uninstalling the part and recompiling it.
