The reason for the high severity it that we are in a desperate issues with our entire mail system incoming/outgoing and imap. These monitoring routines are crucial for the on going analysis. Thanks, -- Donnie It seems that this isn't a bug in net-tools but in a program, which executes ifconfig. it looks like that the program causes leaked file descriptor. Can you describe how you use ifconfig? Also look at this bug #428553. It is similar to this bug. Anyway, if you can. then try to use iproute instead of net-tools, it's better these days. |
