X-BeenThere: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Internet Services Providers List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2006 13:25:45 -0000 This server was in production and rock steady with 4.10-STABLE for years. Before moving it to a colo center, I took it offline and did a clean install of 6.1, cvsup'd to STABLE on 8/30/06 and then installed the latest stable versions of all the applications and mods. It's now back in production and for no cause that I can find, it reboots itself roughly twice a day. Nothing in the syslog or console log, it looks basically like a power event...system comes back up with uncleanly dismounted file systems. However, it is on very clean power, has dual power supplies and none of the other boxes on that circuit has any pwer problems. On boot, I had noticed some complaints about ACPI, but I even tried disabling it, but it still did this several hours later. The ONLY hardware change I'd made was to remove a SCSI passthrough cable that enabled the on-board SCSI (it's an L440GX+) to be used with an external tape drive. If somebody can point me in the right direction, or to the right list, I'd greatly appreciate it! James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
