I have been noticing some things that are very intresting to me that I am not able to decipher. I have been having a lot segmentation faults. last night I had a seg fault with the "passwd" program today a seg fault with "mount".Any pointers in the right direction on how to handle this would be great. This machine has run headless for a few months then today I plugged a monitor and keyboard into it and it wont let anybody log into it from the console only through ssh. I also have not been seeing any connections DENY's from IPCHAINS and I usually see at least 35 a day.
