I suspect it's a bug in lynx (or something). It's ignoring HUP signals and EOFs while doing raw I/O from the terminal, so it sits there getting an EOF and not being happy about it. Use gcore to get a core image or use gdb on the process to figure out where it is and what it's doing. Then fix it :->. <mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
