I found that I had to replace our scanner v 1.14 with 1.20 and suddenly everything started working. on our first test, perl zombied out on me once it got busy. i made a few mods to the basic system, (rh9 has a lot of fat in it), recompiled a lean current kernel that was not redhat supplied, and suddenly it all seems to work. the next few days will tell because we are always hit hard on mondays and tuesdays compared to the rest of the week. if perl zombies on me again, i will switch to using the supplied 5.8.0 along with the suid rpm. i just dont like the idea of a threaded perl in a production environment, heck even perl says not to use it:)
