Top Mud Sites Forum - View Single Post - A big -sigh- for SIGHUP, and nohup isn't working...

X-posted to TMC, because it's hard to tell which forums are active these days (I've been out of MUDding for at least 5 years now).

I found myself with a LOT of free time on my hands, and thought I'd boot up my mud code again, see how far I got, maybe tinker a bit. A friend who runs an ISP set me up with a shell account on his backhaul server, and amazingly I was able to compile the bastardized version of ROM/ROT/I don't even know what with just a few minor errors and boot the thing up.

So, here's the issue: SIGHUP. I continually get the following error thrown (when I run it in GDB):
Program received signal SIGHUP, Hangup.
0x00002aaaaafcd323 in __select_nocancel () from /lib64/libc.so.6

Yeah, I've tried running both the startup script and a manual boot using 'nohup', but no dice. I've found a few references to bits and pieces of code that can be added in to the executable, but seeing as how it's been five years since I've messed around with code at all (much less linux), I'm not starting out with that sans guidance.

Also, I understand this could potentially be related to a firewall issue, from some other reading, but am unsure how
to investigate.

Any suggestions, moving forward?
