Hi all,
I noticed this morning that a perl script was using a lot of CPU time on
my FreeBSD webserver. By the time I killed it, it had run up 400 mins of

However, simply killing 'perl5.8.9' didn't accomplish much, it was back
running again moments later. I then

Thanks to both of you for the encouraging words. I'm going to do little more

Judging by your uname output, the #0 should be #1 if it's reading a re-

KERNCONF for make buildkernel and make installkernel.
For example, I recompiled my kernel and note the output:

The command should include -t ext2fs, not extfs2, as far as I

Ever since I upgraded to P6T motherboard I can't burn any data or audio
CDs/DVDs.
My dvd-writer ('PIONEER ' 'DVD-RW DVR-112D' '1.21' Removable CD-ROM)

And now trying to burn audio-cd I got the log below.
