I'm curious, too, if other people who run coLinux as  service have seen
this problem or not.  Other than that Jason, we are looking into this
problem and should have an patch applied once we figure out what the
issue is.  It would help, alot to know your command-line, especially the
options that you are sending to coLinux when you register your service.

Thanks,

George
