Yes, just make sure you don't have any limits for the core file
 (ulimit -c unlimited  before starting ser) and that you start ser with
 a working directory (the -w switch) in which it is allowed to dump core
 (by default, if -w is not used ser will change its working dir. to /).

You should also run ser under the same user as the one that started it
 (don't use  ser -u some_other_user). If you don't and ser suids to some
 other user, the linux kernel will prevent it from dumping core due to
 security reasons.
