34 <PRE>No one is allowed to telnet into that server but me. So all IRC clients are
35 remote clients none are done via the local loopback or from the machine
38 Your comment that no program should be able to crash an OS is true if this
39 were a perfect world. This isn't a perfect world and software is updated all
40 the time to fix bugs etc, and this could possibly be a bug that needs to be
41 fixed. I don't know for sure. But I don't understand how my game servers can
42 chew up all the ram and put huge loads on the processor (
1.xx and higher)
43 and they don't crash the server.
45 Yet I can run just IRCD and SERVICES and like clockwork the server will
46 crash after a day or so. It points to a problem in IRC and SERVICES and
47 their interaction with the operating system. Since they are the only
48 applications that crash the server.
