(does it work when started as root?) - - some server/... that eats up all available sockets? (unlikely, but who knows...) can you run the attached script with $ tclsh tclserver.tcl and then try to connect to it via a telnet session (see output of the script, for the port to use) > > $ pd > priority 6 scheduling enabled. > priority 8 scheduling enabled. > watchdog: signaling pd... > watchdog: signaling pd... > watchdog: signaling pd... > watchdog: signaling pd... this is most likely very closely related to the issue above. fgmasdr IOhannes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk9oTtIACgkQkX2Xpv6ydvR2HQCg2AeMPJmgIm+rodHFRUQpViOt WTIAoOiER6ve+f55TNHQ7cAIci3qIoMO =qQ0m -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
