Sometimes it just helps to talk about it to figure it out!
Turns out there was a process that was for some reason stuck and this caused the previous incarnation to never truly die, System that sly process kept it open but the actual process could not be found. This actually happened because I'm fiddling around with writing another event handler to be called through NSClient++ and it's this event handler than has caused the problem by the look of it by not fully closing. -h -- Hari Sekhon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
