Maybe we should restart the two daemons daily or weekly? I will change the default IdleTimeout to 600 secs with the upcoming clamav-0.81 release. Which fixes the freshclam proxy problem and some OLE issues. But I need some more time (with the postgresql-8.0 release also), because we are just moving our office and so I'm loaded with work. -- Reini Urban http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/home/rurban/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
