Greetings, I found out what causes my rwho daemon to die, but I can't figure out how to throw gdb on it: It's the act of logging in which makes it die. How would one gdb a task without logging in? I am assuming that this is a low-ram problem, as the machine in question is dedicated to a specific purpose, and has only 8mb of ram. Since rwho runs until a login takes place, my working theory is it dies when trying to swap: top reports 1.6mb of swap in use after login, which means the machine has almost to the byte what it needs to run moment to moment... Any thoughts on how to attack this cockroach? TIA J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
