Hi Gregory, Could you send the complete xrootd log corresponding to the crashed server? Also, did you recompile or use the binary that came with the rpm. If you recompiled, please do a "configure --build=debug" prior to compilation so that we can get the actual statement numbers and variables in the trace. Thanks.
