Thanks - it helps me out some but "man 5 proc" which I grabbed from unstable says: "/proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable (since Linux 2.6.13)" which gives me a problem since I'm on sarge with a 2.6.8 kernel. Do you have any pointers on getting exim4 to dump core without a kernel upgrade? I can do it as a last resort with a backports.org kernel if needed but would prefer to avoid this. Thanks again.
