I vaguely remember this as a bug in the runcmd functions in the plugins when they were first introduced (mea culpa). It was a pretty bizarre error and only appeared if(strlen(output) % sizeof(long) == 0), so it's not easily reproducable. Try updating the plugin package at silmec2 and see if that fixes it. -- Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
