Ah.. should have though of that. Thanks. But, when I 'strace programname', I only see two lines of output. The first being the program execution itself, and the second line is "+++ Killed by SIGKILL +++" How do I figure out who send the SIGKILL ? FWIW, this program requires rather big amount of memory, is there a limit somewhere that send the SIGKILL? This is on a fresh installed FC3. Thanks for any help. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.
