I have the non-demo version and it works great for around 8 or 10 days, then it crashes on startup, or shortly after startup. A reboot clears the problem. This is 2.2.6 with a 2.2.6-stable kernel. Anyone else see this? When you start it up the first time, it runs a little daemon that sticks around. Eventually that spontanously dies (segfault or bus error, don't recall which) and after that, WP just doesn't work right again. It tries restarting the daemon which seems to fail... -john To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
