Sorry, I meant for(i in `{seq 1 254}){ip/ping -n1 192.168.1.$i&} I added the & as I didn't want to wait for one to timeout/succeed before trying the next one. Is there a more sensible way to do this from rc? I.e. to kick off a lot of pings at once and collect the results later. >> panic: Fsprotoclone: all conversations in use >> panic :Fsprotoclone: all conversations in use >> dumpstack disabled >> cpu0: exiting > nope. that's the way it's supposed to go. > the idea is that if all the conversations are used up, > then your machine is useless and you might as well > panic. > > however, a fair question to ask is, is this limit > reasonable, and is panicing really the right thing > to do. I was expecting that a panic was a bug and I shouldn't be able to cause one. I'm running a standalone system here but if I wasn't could I bring down the server like this or only my terminal?
