The ftp server often generates message "ftpd[______] : > exiting on signal 11". I don't know the source of the problem. Is this 2.2.0 or 2.2.2?

I also don't know what I sould do. If you're running 2.2.2, the limits for your login are set too low in /etc/login.conf. Try bumping up the limits. If you're running 2.2.0, run ps -ax and make sure something hasn't gone hog wild. > > CPU 486DX2-66 > MEM 16MB > SWAP 40MB > > I compiled with: > option MaxUsers 40 maxusers isn't an option; it's a directive. I assume you just changed maxusers 16 to maxusers 40 in your kernel config.
