Interesting, but it doesn't really help him debug it ;) Unless there is some other way around it you can stop the kernel making it a system process by editing /usr/src/sys/kern/init_main.c around line 730 (in create_init). Although some signal code seems to specialcase PID 1 so maybe that won't work either.. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C
