Ah, yup! That's almost a certainity. I see a lot of those: Dec 30 03:24:35 localhost syslogd: select: Computer bought the farm Dec 30 03:25:06 localhost last message repeated 131723 times Dec 30 03:27:07 localhost last message repeated 659011 times Oct 3 00:08:01 localhost syslogd: select: Computer bought the farm Oct 3 00:08:36 localhost last message repeated 5416 times Oct 3 00:10:37 localhost last message repeated 1294 times etc etc. I really should have reported those before, but I always forgot about them soon after seeing them, because I was busy with some other troubles. There is really something funny going on with select. Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
