What we see in syslog is: Jun 30 10:26:38 consrv3 ser2net[3073]: read error for controller port: Connection reset by peer Jun 30 10:26:39 consrv3 ser2net[3073]: The tcp write for controller had error: Bad file descriptor The first error is "legal" because the destination decided to close its socket a little earlier than expected. The seconderror is already bad because it tries to use an already deallocated fd. Later we segfault. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 22 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.6-1 - update to 2.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
