Hello
I am just curious about incident we had. Our Solaris 8 server started to
crash occasionally. SUN support said, that we hit following bug:
6476945 System unable to reboot properly after proftp ftp session.
According their statement sometimes when proftpd exits (calls exit() )
it crashes whole SUN box. This bug also depends on the combination of
which version of proftpd and which kernel patch level is used.
A fix is available as patch 117350-45 since January 11th.
So my question is if people are aware about it and is it proftpd is a
problems because of some crapy coding ?
I am just interested in opinion about thoird party software reliability
while running on SUN box and who in reality this time did wrong coding -
SUN or Proftpd developers ?
Thanks for your comments.
With best regards
Martynas
