Can't say for sure if I'm being attacked or not (don't know why anyone would want to crash my box), but my load averages are very rarely over 1.25. The only thing that uses any real CPU time is RC5-64 and PPP. CPU typically >97% nice(rc5). Suffice to say, I don't think this qualifies as 'overloaded'. :) Tom Embt tom@embt.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
