Hello Henrik,
Have you had any luck tracking down the issue in the ares code that causes bbtest-net to crash? Shall I send more backtraces?
Best Regards,
Joe

Have you tried it with the beta-5 version released last week-end ? This includes an update to the C-ARES library that I hope might solve this problem.
If not, I'll have to file a bug-report with the C-ARES people.

Ah, I'm using bbgen-3.5, can I use the newer c-ares lib with that?

That's a bit tricky, but you can fetch Hobbit in the beta-5 version, and configure it for use with standard Big Brother. That gives you the same set of tools that you have with bbgen. In fact, you can just copy the "bbnet/bbtest-net" tool you get from compiling Hobbit and use it instead of the bbtest-net from bbgen.

Thanks, I'll give that a try and see how it goes...

I've compiled bbgen-3.5 with c-ares-1.2.1 (shipped with beta-6) and bbtest-net seems to be OK so far, running without a crash. However, as it took some time for the problem to occur with the previous version of the c-ares libs, I'll have to just monitor this and see how it goes...

I had earlier reported bbtest-net crashing on bbgen-3.5, which was narrowed down to the ares libs. After upgrading c-ares to 1.2.1 and re-enabling ares, the bb servers have stayed up all weekend. It appears to be the case that ares 1.2.1 fixes the bbtest-net crash bug.
