I've seen this before, on a 2.2.6 system. IIRC, the answer from Jordan was that there was a subtle but in inetd (or triggered by inetd) which caused this sort of memory problem. I don't recall whether killing and restarting inetd was enough to "fix" it or if it required a reboot. I'm fairly certain that it didn't represent a security problem. --Jeff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
