Whoa! There was a lot of output from kdump for my hung send-pr. I include here a shorter output from kdump for hung passwd: 792 ktrace RET ktrace 0 792 ktrace CALL readlink(0x280bcda4,0xefbfd4ec,0x3f) 792 ktrace NAMI "/etc/malloc.conf" 792 ktrace RET readlink -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 792 ktrace CALL mmap(0,0x1000,0x3,0x1002,0xffffffff,0,0,0) 792 ktrace RET mmap 671944704/0x280d1000 792 ktrace CALL break(0x804c000) 792 ktrace RET break 0 792 ktrace CALL break(0x804d000) 792 ktrace RET break 0 792 ktrace CALL execve(0xefbfd5f4,0xefbfdab8,0xefbfdac0) 792 ktrace NAMI "/home/wayne/passwd" 792 ktrace RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 792 ktrace CALL execve(0xefbfd5f4,0xefbfdab8,0xefbfdac0) 792 ktrace NAMI "/bin/passwd" 792 ktrace RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 792 ktrace CALL execve(0xefbfd5f4,0xefbfdab8,0xefbfdac0) 792 ktrace NAMI ".//passwd" 792 ktrace RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 792 ktrace CALL execve(0xefbfd5f4,0xefbfdab8,0xefbfdac0) 792 ktrace NAMI "/usr/local/genome/bin/passwd" 792 ktrace RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 792 ktrace CALL execve(0xefbfd5f4,0xefbfdab8,0xefbfdac0) 792 ktrace NAMI "/usr/bin/passwd" 792 ktrace NAMI "/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1" This does nothing for me, although I can see that it is hunting through my path for the program passwd, which it finds in its proper place in /usr/bin. Can anyone else find a solution here? Wayne M. Barnes wayne@barnes1.wustl.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
