Check LINT for details. I recompiled the kernel with these new lines: options MAXDSIZ="(2048*1024*1024)" options MAXSSIZ="(2048*1024*1024)" options DFLDSIZ="(2048*1024*1024)" and now everything works without any prolems! Awesome! Thank you very much for your help! - Jason Barnes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
