Hello,
	I have a BSDI server running.  It seems to be running perfectly 
except for one major, anooying problem.  Any time I change any file in the
/etc directory, the kernel panics and reboots.  I can't change the password,
add ftp access, etc.  I'm an experienced Unix administrator so it's not
that I'm doing something stupid.  Can anyone help me out with this?
