I think you may have both stumbled onto the cause of the problem. :) /dev/ad3s1e /tmp ufs rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,nosymfollow I didn't realise that non-exec /tmp was a no-no. I'll try a rebuild tonight, the system seems stable enough for now, I don't think anything was touched apart from the kernel. Thanks for your help, and I'll see you in eight hours when everything comes to a shuddering halt... :) Mark _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
