All,

Now that we are back from the 4 day holiday Thanksgiving (in the US). I noticed that
vacation.pl is running 4 times for a single user and eating up all my cpu cycles.

the "top" command shows that these 4 vacation.pl processes are constantly changing PID numbers.
Any clues? This BQ server is Nuonce 4.5 and all patched up via yum.

This particular user might have gone over disk quota while on vacation, but is currently not on vacation and under quota. I can't even "killall vacation.pl" because the processes come back.

Herb
