ArgusInterface timestamps wayyy out of order

Hi Folks

Every now and again (about once a month per sensor??)  an argus server stops write any records and these records go to the logs (see below).

My automated monitoring sees that the output file is missing and tries to restart the argus server.   This fails because I try INT and this argus fails to quit.  I end up having to login and hit it with a KILL.  I think I will be amending the stop script to get heavy if INT does not work.

Any idea the root cause of this might be?  I am guessing that something might be wrapping around in 32 bits?  Any thing I can do to diagnose this?
