I was going to try this with SchilliX 0.5.1 but I expect to get that same result as Solaris. After all, its the same kernel. I think there is a similar fork bomb type of attack for Windows. Its called MSIE I think :-) In any case, joking aside, what are your thoughts on the maxpid = 32767 ? For some reason there seems to be a need for a pid much higher than that during boot. Dennis
