Re: emacsserver unstable?

Hi to all

The problem is almost solved, I think. At least it is identified.

You are almost right. I found out that the connection to emacsserver
is disrupted exactly every full hour. At this time the timestamp of
the socket /tmp/emacs1000/server also changes. I have no idea how to
prevent the socket from being refreshed by this cronjob. I have to go
through the Debian cron manuals to find out.

As this problem may occur to other Debian users too, I will post the
solution when I have found it.

Thanks for all the help

Pete, I'm still brooding over your exam.
