Hi Ermal,

I don`t have any packages installed, only the base system.


Maybe a lot of events... i even tried to send all syslog to a remote machine to 
see if i catch something unusual...


I`ll try to disable all log from my firewall rules and see what happen.


Thank you!


Diego

You have either too many events on your system: changing ip?

Or you have some stupid package calling filter_configure_sync directly
and pile them up.
Usually they stay like that either because there are too many or
because the locking used has been messed up.

First check the packages installed.
