If you are wrinting much code in C learning to use DDD will pay off big time. You'll be able to simply watch the program run and see what variables are set to. I can't imagine doing a job as complex as porting Asterisk "blind", this is with no debugger. It's like debugging electronics without without amultimeter, 'scope or logic analyzer. The other thing you might try is a "profiler", Normally you'd think of this for performance tunning the code as it will show you what line numbers are taking the most time. Sory I can't be much help but ask on one of the BSD developer forums about where you should be reading to lean about profiling the code. BTW the DDD documentation is excelent. It comes with a nice thick book that is even in color. DDD was written by a group of university students in Germany before turning it over to the FSF. It is profesion quality and very mature. I'm still betting the root cause is the differece between the Linux and BSD pthreads implementation. ===== Chris Albertson Home: 310-376-1029 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 310-990-7550 Office: 310-336-5189 [EMAIL PROTECTED] KG6OMK __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
