Thomas,
Have you considered the possibility that there is file system corruption
localized to portions of the file system structures relevant to the /etc
directory or some of its contents?
According to the book "Windows 2000 Proffesional Resource Kit," stop 0x24
is "NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM," which I take as highly confirmatory of my hunch. The
associated parameters are given as:
1) Source file and line number.
2) A non-zero value contains the address of the exception record.
3) A non-zero value contains the address of the context record.
4) A non-zero value contains the address where the original exception occurred.
Also, the RK book suggests examining the event log for SCSI and FASTFAT in
the System Log or Autochk in the Application Log.
The prescription indicated is "chkdsk /f /r" on the relevant volume.
Have you done a chkdsk on the file system volume in question (lately)? You
should.
Good luck.
