1. Problem Description:
The mod-perl enabled server seems to be working ok, but is generating
error messages (every minute) as reported by our system administrators:
The following errors are being reported in /var/log/messages. This problem may have
caused the kernel panic and should be addressed. I copied John Ferreira in case he
may have any inform on signal handling issues with RedHat Linux ES 3.0.
