-<PRE>>><i> This is bizarre, and looks like memory corruption; can you

-</I>><i>Not really. As I said, I suppose the machine on which the services are
-</I>><i>running (which also is our main hub server) was probably under attack -
-</I>><i>just like yesterday, *sigh*.
-</I>><i>The whole network froze and other servers (including mine) splitted, and
-</I>><i>when we came back there was no sign of services, just that core file. I
-</I>><i>didn't find anything strange in the logs either.
-</I>><i>I didn't check the cpu load when I logged onto the machine, but I've
-</I>><i>heard of some attacks that manage to rise the load to 100%. Could that
-</I>><i>be the case?
-</I>
- Such attacks are possible, but I doubt those are related to the crash.
-It's more likely the flood triggered a bug somewhere in Services that
-corrupted memory--I've heard reports of such but have never managed to
-track it down. Version 5.0 should be more stable in that regard, I hope.
