Since you say "everything just picks up right where it left off" after an "mb_map full" message, I assume the machine hasn't lost the network? On the two occasions that it has happened on a machine here, I had to reboot to get network access back. No pings were going out, and it would not respond to incoming pings. All the netstat displays looked normal and it *should* have been able to communicate with the outside world, but it wasn't. -- Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org
