Hello.

     Two of our postgresql database servers crash
(both are provider nodes) when starting up the slony
daemon.  We use FreeBSD 5.4, Postgresql 8.0.1 (two are
8.0.3) and Slony 1-1.1.0_1.  All binaries are compiled
with gcc 3.2.4.

     I have posted a highly detailed description of
the system setup, including version info, config
files, stack traces from core dumps, output of "ldd
postmaster", slonik scripts, pg_hba.conf and
postgresql.conf files online [1]

     The crash seems to be related to using an SSL
connection.  The postmaster process doesn't die if I
disable SSL (which I can't do for security reasons).

     Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try
to make the system work properly?

     Has anyone observed a problem like this before?

     Is there any more data that I can provide to
assist with diagnosis?

     Any help would be greatly appreciated.
