Hi,
Can somebody in the list tell me why sometimes when I do the TOP
command I see more than one asterisk process ?
Sometimes it appears and desappears again...
Thanks,
Ard.

I'm using 2.6 kernel on RHEL 4. Yes, all are of the same memory size.

What do you see in /var/run/asterisk.pid or /var/eun/asterisk/asterisk.pid ? Strange. This is the second report I see of such a situation in this list recently. Asterisk should fail to daemonize if it finds a different Asterisk through the PID file. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:tzafrir@jabber.org +972-50-7952406 mailto:tzafrir.cohen@xorcom.com http://www.xorcom.com iax:guest@local.xorcom.com/tzafrir
