Dossy,

        We're seeing the dead thread problem under SuSE 7.3 (Linux
2.4.10-64GB-SMP) and 8.1 (2.4.19-64GB-SMP), but not under 9.0
(2.4.21-99-smp4G) or Solaris.

        I merged the pertinent changes from the Arsdigita patch into
"nsd/unix.c".  It doesn't look as clean as your patch, but it does
result in the server exiting/crashing completely without a lingering
thread.  I've attached a diff of these changes.

        As soon as I've finished sanitizing our AOLserver config file,
I'll pass that along, too.

        Thanks for the help.

                                - Fen
