Either keep an ssh session open indefinitely and then do an "echo /proc/*" when the problem occurs Or stop cron and see if the problem goes away. A poorly written cronjob seems to be the most likely cause of an accidental fork bomb. An "ulimit -u 100" in a problematic script might help to contain the problem. Also: if you post your problem to the list, try to keep posting the rest of the thread there too, so that others can benefit from any solution. Good luck solving it regards marc _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
