I just telneted into the machine and got the following: -bash in malloc(): warning: recursive call. bash: xmalloc: cannot allocate 3 bytes (0 bytes allocated) Then the shell exited. Any ideas? Is this a bash bug or do you think it may be a bad memory chip? The machine has been really reliable so far (running 1 month).
