Problem with Netscape making zombies!
Hello Debian Users List!,
I seem to be having problems with Netscape 3.01 spawning zombie
'netstat' processes, and thus hanging. I was wondering if anybody knows a
fix for this. The only cause I can think of for this is that the Netscape
coders forgot to do a 'wait' in the parent process. If thats the
case, then there's nothing I can do.
However, I don't recall this problem ever occuring before with
other distributions. So perhaps it's something else besides sloppy
coding? And also, I can sometimes get netscape to start. So this sort of
alludes to the idea that it's not Netscape's fault but something else.
Thanks in advance for any help on this!
