Re: Utilities to test buffer overflow...

There are multiple causes of buffer overflows. Try running grep "BUFFER
OVERFLOW" * in your src directory to find out the possible functions,and
I believe there should be a few that are generating the message. I'm not
yet one with the source, but this would be a good place to start because
it would give you some more insight into the problem. It could just be
too much data coming in before its processed. Who knows, also look into
lint. It can find subtle bugs in code. Good luck.
