Anything shown on the actual console? There's some error conditions which emit messages via syslog() only (see lines ~278-286 of src/sbin/savecore/savecore.c). Also, any chance of output from savecore -f -vv? There's some extra debugging info which might come in handy (lines ~288 of src/sbin/savecore/savecore.c). -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
