Hi All,

I think that this problem is related with DG (or its interactions with
OpenBSD), and I have already posted the following emails to the DG
maillist, but I could not receive any replies. So I assume that most DG
2.9.7.5 users run it on Linux, and they don't have this problem.
Therefore, I hope there are people on this list running DG 2.9.7.5 on
OpenBSD 3.9.

The summary of the issue is that I get the following errors in messages:

dansguardian: Error accepting. (Ignorable)
dansguardian: Error reading ipc. (Ignorable)

When these errors occur for all the child processes (max 120 in config
file), DG stops all web access. Apparently, they are not "ignorable."

If I can't receive any replies from misc@ either, I'll submit a bug
report to DG.

I would appreciate any help.
Thanks,

Subject: [dansguardian] Problems with 2.9.7.5 on OpenBSD 3.9
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Unfortunately I had to switch back to 2.8.0.6, because now another
similar error is causing the same problem, and it occurs so many times,
I cannot use a script to workaround it. (Since 2.8.0.6 is lacking some
very good features of 2.9.7.5, this is quite sad.)

dansguardian: Error reading ipc. (Ignorable)

I'm getting these errors on 3 different systems.

Since there was no reply to my previous post below, I assume that I'm
the only one having problems with 2.9.7.5 on OpenBSD 3.9.

What could be wrong? I would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
