You could check if there are any events related to that crash (like reconfiguration, neighbor shutdown) or any suspicious BIRD log messages around the crash.
Yes, a neighbour was disconnectiing/reconnecting at that exact time. I think this was the trigger.
I feel like i should upgrade to 1.4.0--is there a good place to find a Ubuntu package?
I don't know about Ubuntu packages, but there are 'official' Debian packages for BIRD here (at least for Squeeze and Wheezy):
So i looked more closely at the download section of the site, like you suggested. And on this page: http://bird.network.cz/?download&tdir=debian/ i found the following: "If you want use Ubuntu package repository, use the following command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cz.nic-labs/bird Or have a look at the following URL for further instructions:https://launchpad.net/~cz.nic-labs/+archive/bird" I looked at those things, and used them. I upgraded to 1.3.11 first, then 1.4.0. So for there have been no problems with the newer releases, no crashing. Thanks for your help, Jonathan
