I've found some problems with the 2.0.5 kernel under extreme disk and network load (more info later). I decided to rebuild a special "SERVER" kernel with extra NMBCLUSTERS, MAX_CHILD's and MAX_OPEN's, as well as putting back a kernel without all that on the non-server machines. Does each build take place completely within the compile/CONFIG directory, or are files outside of that modified? It doesn't look like it, but I want to make sure. (yes, I know I can compile one after the other, but I'm still curious) -- Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org
