drosih@rpi.edu said: :- If what we're implementing is basically the same as AIX's SIGDANGER, :- then I'd just as soon call it SIGDANGER. I must be really stupid. I do builds of the same software package on SunOs, Solaris, FreeBSD(2.2.x), HPUX, and AIX. These machines are simliarly configured with memory, etc, and all of the file space is NFS mounted. The builds on all of the machines *except* AIX *always* run to completion. The AIX box will sometimes complete and sometimes not, and sometimes I have to re-start builds two or three times. (You can't imagine how annoying it is to get messages like: "my build failed!!! What did you do to the build?" when it is just stupid AIX shooting innocent processes!) If this is such a great idea, why is it such a pain in the ass? Also, why have I never encountered FreeBSD doing this random process killin thing, nomatter *how* much load I put on it? Just asking... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Withrow, R.W.
