TCPDUMP getting signals from Mars

[Norman Elton <wnelto () net wm edu>]

I'm running TCPDUMP on a number of machines. They all behave as 
expected, with one exception. We have a machine with 4 network cards, 
although I doubt this is related to the failure. After running TCPDUMP 
for a minute or two, it unexpectedly quits, as if we had hit CNTRL-C. 
It prints the number of packets received and dropped, then returns you 
to the command prompt.

This occurs using RedHat's RPM installation. I also installed from 
source, and modified the program to output the signal number. It is 
indeed receiving a signal 15 (sigterm), but for the life of me, I can't 
figure out where it's coming from.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Norman
