Hi Helen, thanks for your input

first, I'm using FB 1.5.3 CS on Windows 2003 server

How do I know it's comming from client side? eg:

SVSABEITA Fri Aug 24 15:16:48 2007
INET/inet_error: read errno = 10054

SVSABEITA is the server name. If it was from a client, It would have the
client machine name instead?

sometimes I also get
"SERVER/process_packet: broken port, server exiting"

I thought this was the error from the actions you've mentioned. so, could
you also tell me what the above error means?

lol... =) ok

No. I don't use guardian (forgot to say before that this is a CS box)
and no, no server crashes (as far as I understand from the log entries)

Many thanks for your help,
