Re: RC5 Stream client on Centos Linux

And now even more weirdness.

Stopping and starting a few times was no problem, then it did it and
kept failing every time I tried to start it, even after a reboot.

Not sure but I'm wondering if it's a corrupted output buffer file?
When I clear the buffer files out, I clear them all (after copying the
input buffer to another machine as a chkpoint file so I don't lose
them), and it works again.  Next time I'll try just deleting the
output buffer file and see if that fixes it.
