I get this in logs:
02/19/2007 05:16:12.213 23859386 ERROR: External program SNIFFER didn't finish quick enough; terminating. 02/19/2007 05:16:12.213 23859386 Couldn't get external program exit code At this point I see thousands of .xxx and .fin files built up in the sniffer directory. Usually forcing a sniffer update (normally done every hour automatically). ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Darrell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Sent: Monday, February 19, 2007 9:32 AM To: declude.junkmail@declude.com Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Declude/Sniffer Issues What are you seeing the logs that indicates this? Declude will terminate long running external processes and log that it terminated it. Are you seeing those entries? Also, during these times when you look at task manager do you see a bunch of idle sniffer processes? Typically from my experience when you see all the threads being used with very little to no CPU usage it tends to be a DNS issue (i.e slow or not responding DNS server).

One is Smartermail4/Declude4.3.3 Other is Smartermail2/Declude3. These servers can run perfectly for weeks but for the past few weeks we have been sporadically seeing Declude back up files in the Proc directory. At this time all Declude threads are being used with no processing power being used. It appears Sniffer is not finishing and hogging up all the threads after reviewing the logs. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks, Chris Patterson, CCNA Network Engineer/Support Manager Rapid Systems --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
