I too thought this was most likely. It sure sounds like some kind of system-level issue and nagios not working is just a symptom. Maybe your system logs show something helpful. If it happens again, maybe an strace of the nagios process might show something interesting or even putting it into debug mode maybe? -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
