Could this indicate possible break-in (it was in security log), or is more likely a hardware/software error? (I'm seeing this message for the first time.) The OS is FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE (sendmail is the one provided with FreeBSD). PS. Not sure if this have anything to do with it (the message mentions CPU time, not the clock), but I'm running a ntp daemon, to synchronize time... -- Best regards, Derek mailto:takeda@takeda.tk http://www.takeda.tk -- Smash forehead on keyboard to continue.....
