Hi all. I have a Raptor firewall that is running pingd so that we can monitor DMZ systems. Roughly a couple of times a week, pingd either dies or just stops proxying pings. When this happens, I start getting the following messages in the logfile: Mar 28 10:11:17.223 xxxxxxxx pingd[2269]: 343 Interfaces Warning: Unable to determine interface for destination address xx.xx.xx.xx - is the system local and down? -- test connectivity with ping I've noticed that the footprint of this process increases as if there is a memory leak until it's sitting on about 16MB when it finally stops working. Does anybody else have this problem or know what causes it? Is it just a memory leak, or do I need to throttle back the pings going through it? Axent doesn't seem to have a fix for it. _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () nfr com http://www.nfr.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
