Content-Type: text/plain Date: Wed, 12 Aug 1998 16:05:22 EST Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I have been running 2.2.5R for a about 6 monhts now and I have posted a couple of times complaining about my X session gets killed with unexpected HUP signal etc. I finally resorted to *not* running X about just normal login from the console ttyvX and/or telnet via pty. However, every now and then even when all of those sessions are active, the entire login session and the process will just get killed and I got logged out abruptly and there is just no sigh of what is happening but from vty console, just get the normal login prompt again!! This is happening many many times that I think the system is getting to a unusable state for proper use. I have been a happy FreeBSD and I think I must have been done something wrong ? Does anyone know of init process does send HUP signal under any circumstance or maybe other processes do so ? I can't explain the behaviour I am getting at all and it has caused me quite a fair bit of frustration not knowing where to start debug. If anyone have any idea, please kindly advice me and point me to the right direction as I would like to get this sorted out ASAP. Many thanks in advance.
