inetd in realloc(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense. That's what is currently preventing FTP to this machine, and it also says that if someone tries to telnet in, but not for ssh so I haven't noticed it before, dunno how long it's been happening. >From the mail archives it looks like nobody's sure what's going on with this one but it's fairly common. I'm too green to help but I'll try anyway. Doug White once suggested netstat -m # netstat -m 17 mbufs in use: 3 mbufs allocated to data 1 mbufs allocated to packet headers 11 mbufs allocated to protocol control blocks 2 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses 0/20 mbuf clusters in use 42 Kbytes allocated to network (5% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines That looks pretty good to me, tho I don't understand it. A memory thing? Is top any use? (It could be, because I don't understand top either :-) # top [H[Jlast pid: 14801; load averages: 0.03, 0.12, 0.14[1;72H21:07:00 51 processes: 1 running, 50 sleeping CPU states: % user, % nice, % system, % interrupt, % idle Mem: 3156K Active, 112K Inact, 2444K Wired, 352K Cache, 475K Buf, 428K Free Swap: 26M Total, 18M Used, 8464K Free, 68% Inuse PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 14801 root 46 0 616K 696K RUN 0:01 57.81% 2.82% top 14799 root 18 0 444K 272K pause 0:00 1.60% 0.72% csh 183 root 2 0 456K 192K select 313:30 0.53% 0.53% ppp 2134 root 10 0 728K 372K wait 0:12 0.46% 0.46% bash OK, what next? -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
