Hello, > I know that the MUD can dump core files, but mine does not, perhaps I could Typically, the main reason for a Linux/Unix system not dumping core is that they have no limit set for the ulimit function. But then again, a lot of things under Linux aren't fully "optimised" in order to save you grief - just look at hdparm :) Anyhow, if you type "ulimit -a" you'll get maybe something like: core file size (blocks) 0 So, if you want it to dump core, that zero needs to change. So issue "ulimit -c unlimited", which'll result in: core file size (blocks) unlimited and all should be good. Force a crash by freeing a null or some funky thing like that, and you should have some core goodness. -J. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
