you'd probably have to strace it around the time it does the fork to get useful information. Do you have any custom parser functions perhaps that might be running external commands? or use the generate() function much? I am not sure if the generate function actually forks like this but it's worth seeing if you use it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
