I'm afraid I was rushing my patch on Friday evening and my ypbind died, probably the same way as previously, over the weekend. I was missing a line adding SIGPIPE to the sigs_to_catch in the signal handling thread, not just the sigs_to_block in the main thread. I've attached an updated patch against the original version but I still have to add a rider that, despite spending several hours on it, I've still not managed to test this to my satisfaction. It stayed up on Sunday night through another network outage when other servers didn't but I won't be convinced unless I can reproduce the problem on demand. ------------------------------------- Martin's Outlook, BlueArc Engineering
