Well, if you could run BIRD (presumably the current version) with 'ulimit -c unlimited' and then be able to kill BIRD during lockup using 'kill -QUIT <pid>', then resulting core dump would be highly useful for determining the source of the problem. But hitting the BIRD in the right moment could be problematic. In the next version, we will implement configurable 'watchdog' that would kill BIRD automatically during such lockup. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santi...@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
