hi there,

i was just wondering if the ifconfig defunct problem issued in 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-cfengine/2004-06/msg00024.html

has yet been solved in cfengine 2.1.10. currently i habe been using a 2.1.9 
debian sid package backported to sarge with a 2.6.5 kernel (ipv6 is 
activated...)

from time to time (more than once daily) a cfagent and its child ifconfig 
hangs around on the system in zombie fashion. the system becomes incredibly 
slow around the network devices on this occasion...

if this issue has not been solved, the admins at our institute may contribute 
to the debugging...
