For the life of me I can't figure this one out. Can anyone tell me what 
the heck the Config Probe process is. After a reboot of this remote 
device this comes right back and I see nothing in bug track. This is a 
remote office router with a t1 on the serial side and the t1 is running 
at about 25% utilization.
