This is from getname.c, and shows that the .players file was missing at
the time someone tried to login. 2 is ENOENT, meaning in this context
that the named file does not exist on open().
Should the players file be missing at this point?

Probably related to above; the getname.c code may not be responding
properly if the players file is missing, which may have resulted in the
client being dead.

4 is EINTR. read() [socket.c:935] was interrupted by the ntserv alarm
timer, issued as part of daemon synchronisation by daemonII.c. I guess
the data stream from the client froze. socket.c received the start of a
packet from the client, but did not receive the rest of it.

One of the clients caused an EPIPE on write() to the socket. The TCP/IP
connection broke, no reason available.

The forceShutdown shows a FREE worked.

Same again.

You on 2.9pl1 yet? 2.9pl0 didn't install the end_tourney.pl file.

Same as earlier.

No new-line on error message. Fixed in CVS. Why has the ntserv gone
away though, without marking it's slot free?
