| Hi Mathieu, 
| 
| Which version are you using? 

1.4.1 on FreeBSD.

| We have just fixed a problem in that sounds awfully similar where the
| signer was crashing after problems with the hsm connection:
| 
| * OPENDNSSEC-444: Fix double free corruption in case of HSM connection
| error while signing RRsets (also fixes SUPPORT-71).
| 
| It is fundamentally a threading issue. If you have the core dump from the
| crash I could try to confirm if this is what you are seeing.  

I looked, but I can't seem to find one, no.

| The fix is in the 1.4.2rc1 release candidate which is was made available
| to the maintainers yesterday and is available here:

| 
| A full 1.4.2 release is planned for Tuesday 10th September. 

I'll wait for the release, with the number of zones I have, if it's not
fixed with the update, I'll see it soon :-)

Thanks,
