Problem is that the system crashes before ifconfig -a completes, and it would appear that the stack smashing that whatever syscall is running does will bring down the kernel regardless of how I proceed. I was asking specifically if someone new the approximate code path that ifconfig -a traversed since I was having trouble collecting this data. I would assume that even if I knew what syscall was running that I'd have to trace my way through a maze of function pointers before I got my way clear. dave. -- ============================================================================ |David Gilbert, Velocet Communications. | Two things can only be | |Mail: dgilbert@velocet.net | equal if and only if they | |http://www.velocet.net/~dgilbert | are precisely opposite. | =========================================================GLO================ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
