Good Morning Wil,

So, we know that the KBOX, KCAR, and KGYX products are in the queue. 
And pqact dumps core when it runs, and there's only one entry in your
pqact.conf file.  This strongly points to a problem in the pqact.conf
file.  Make sure that any blank lines are really blank.  Better yet,
make every unused line a comment line.  

If this doesn't help, send me a copy of your pqact.conf.  I'll try it on
my own machine.

Anne
