During the boot process multiple programs seem to be receiving a SIGHUP. I have the stable version of samba installed from ports, and this causes nmbd to core dump during the machine startup. I have talked with the samba people about this and donated the core file to them. They did feel that it was strange that nmbd would be getting a signal during startup though. This problem was hard to track down. It seems that it programs only receive this SIGHUP sometimes. My only thought to the intermitant occurance is that something is SIGHUPing all of the processes, but sometimes local initialization starts before this happens. My /var/log/messages showed that samba and cyrus (my only programs started during init that were not part of the base system) both caught this signal. This should be a trivial task for me to track down. Unfortunately I'm having problems. My main method of searching was performing grep for "kill" in the /etc directory. This did not yield anything promising. I was wondering if someone could give me hints about tracking this problem down. regards, Galen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Try FREE Yahoo!
