This caught my eye as I think I saw a simlar message on one of my boxes ( I run 4.5 4.7 4.8 & 5.1 here) for me it was a 10M ether coax connector I'd forgotten to rotate tight (it was just sitting on), causing amd problems to a crontab job, for you maybe your $HOME/.nexrc is on another machine with intermittent net failure. Whatever the cause of your problem, How to trace: Too often on FreeBSD lists one sees error messages treated as great mysteries, but they're often not ! Perhaps we all forget at times but" "Use The Source" ! The curse of Microsfoft "No Source Here" does not apply :-) Use find & grep (I use my script: http://berklix.com/~jhs/bin/.csh/Grep ) Grep "Resource temporarily unavailable" ) contrib/isc-dhcp/common/errwarn.c: return "Resource temporarily unavailable"; contrib/isc-dhcp/omapip/errwarn.c: return "Resource temporarily unavailable"; contrib/sendmail/mail.local/mail.local.c: case EAGAIN: /* Resource temporarily unavailable */ contrib/sendmail/src/conf.c: case EAGAIN: /* Resource temporarily unavailable */ lib/libc/gen/errlst.c: "Resource temporarily unavailable", /* 35 - EAGAIN */ lib/libc/sys/intro.2:.It Er 35 EAGAIN Em "Resource temporarily unavailable" . share/examples/mdoc/example.3:Resource temporarily unavailable. sys/i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_sup.c: * will cause an EAGAIN (resource temporarily unavailable) to be returned. sys/sys/errno.h:#define EAGAIN 35 /* Resource temporarily unavailable */ Grep on your current; tweak each text occurence differently, EG add a debug number, make world; then you can report &/or investigate where error originates. - Julian Stacey Freelance Systems Engineer, Unix & Net Consultant, Munich.
