</div>Hi, Jeff...<br>
<br>
Glad it helped get you make some headway, and sorry you've had trouble.<br>
<br>
BTW, if you wouldn't mind copying this list with your results, whether<br>
from applying the aforementioned patch to a built-from-source Erlang<br>
of your own, or upgrading to a specific newer one that already<br>
incorporates it (if such a thing currently exists---I'm not sure it<br>
does yet), that would be great. That way there's a Google-able record<br>
of the problem and a solution for other folks who may encounter it to<br>
come across...<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>

For now, I've implemented the work around @ <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="http://erlang.2086793.n4.nabble.com/crash-dump-at-ejabberd-startup-td3044533.html">http://erlang.2086793.n4.nabble.com/crash-dump-at-ejabberd-startup-td3044533.html</a> .. However, I wouldn't call this a "patch" as the current FreeBSD port is suppose to recognize a connection from an ip that matches the local ip, as being a true "Local". <div>
