I'm running FBSD 2.2.5R. A signal 11 is a "Segmentation Violation", which for x86 is actually a reference to unmapped virtual memory - or in other words, an unresolvable page fault. The most common cause is a programming error involving a bad pointer dereference. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
