[App_rpt-users] rpt_extnodes quits

One of my nodes is having an issue.  The rpt_extnodes list stops updates.  I have taken these steps to correct the problem killall rc.updatenodelist killall rc.updatenodelist   ; a second time to be sure it kills all /etc/rc.d/rc.updatenodelist &    ; the list updates, and continues doing so for a few hours then falls upon the same problem. Anyone experiencing this?
