Message-ID: <19991021193216.D86089@over.ru> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I've just found, that bringing up ppp0 on a computer with one more network interface causes qmail-1.03 to crash. Investigating further, I've found that one of qmail's internal variables gets overwriten when calling ioctl SIOCGIFCONF with pointer to ifconf structure as argument (ipme.c, line 57 in qmail). I still have not found if qmail gives wrong address to ioctl or if ioctl use more memory than requested. The fail seems to occur after iterating through ds0 interface. By the way, what is ds0, how it should be configured, and where is it described? What does it do? Does anyone else runs FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE with qmail and dial-in access? Alex.
