Generally I tend to agree with you on the "signal 10 or 11" errors relating to hot/bad hardware. However, during the past several weeks I have noticed this webmin problem from day one but I didn't expect to run webmin in production so I didn't really worry about it until now. However, webmin has the best procmail front end I have found so it looks like we may be keeping it since this is a dedicated qmail+procmail machine. I have performed many complete `make buildworld' (at least one every other day) during the development/testing phases and I have had no problems at all. I have this LH3 running SMP and the only remaining anomaly is this webmin/perl core dump. So, if you can think of anything else please let me know. I hate to install a non-ports version of perl on this "all FreeBSD machine" but I am thinking that is going to probably solve this problem. Thanks again! Rick Up
