On a 1.3 machine, I'm seeing a message: filehandle spans mbufs on my
console. Probably from syslog kern.debug.
The question is: What does it mean?
A few days ago I saw the same message and a few days later, my pop server
which had been running smoothly for months and months and months just
stopped working. All other network services worked fine. Inetd was fine.
Replacing the popper with the lastest qualcomm release fixed(?) the problem.
It's still a mystery why this happened after working so long. I didn't
change anything to break it either.
I don't know if the two are connected, but it's my only lead. Thanks.
