No German, I am stuck with english. as for hanging processes, this is probaly due to the bug in the FBSD distributer libpcap, hanging on pcap_next(). I got those also in nessus 1.09 this was fixed in nessusd 1.1x, which uses its one libpcap. I would be interested in seeing if nessus 1.10 or 1.11x panics freebsd at your site. -- Michael Scheidell Secnap Network Security, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1+(561) 368-9561 See updated IT Security News at http://www.fdma.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
