We have had problems with the portmap daemon disappearing (presumably crashing) intermittently under SunOs 4.0.3 on a Sun4 and a Sparcstation. We are developing software which uses the portmapper, but I don't think we are doing anything strange enough to crash it, and furthermore, I would have thought that it shouldn't be possible to crash it. The software seems to work fine under 4.0.1. I haven't yet been able to find a reproducable sequence of events which cause the crash. Is this a known problem? Is there a fix? I would appreciate any help. - David Hayward Earth Resource Mapping, 130 Hay St, Subiaco, Western Australia 6008 Phone: +61 9 388 2900 Fax: +61 9 388 2901 ACSnet: david@erm.oz
