X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01d) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, yesterday night at 01:47 our FreeBSD3.0 release box simply rebooted. I didnt notice it right away because we have a holiday here at germany, and thus a few minutes ago was the first time I looked at the top and was puzzled with the uptime. Anyway, the box came up with no problems, only complaining that / was not properly dismounted. And now the question. How can I investigate? Where do I have to look, what do I have to set in order to find the source of that reboot? (Besides checking the Hardware and the FAN... ;-)... ) If against all odds something like this happens again, what can I do to enable my box to give me more details about what is happening... or was happening... ;-) TIA, Andre "aprentice daemon-master" Anneck The UORMSS - Source Net http://www.anneck.de/rmss ------------------------------------- ICQ# 1339921 | Home: http://anneck.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
