Hi All, Thanks to all of you that replied so promptly to my question. However I think I failed to outline the situation clearly enough so with the responses so far in mind... Question was: Is it possible for FreeBSD to shut itself down and restart for no reason? - The "new server in question has been running at another facility without any problems for about 4 months so I am assuming it is "burned in" and stable. - The logs (var/log/messages, /var/log/httpd-error.log) do not show any obvious issues such as kernel panics, just a hard restart (/ not dismounted correctly) - As far as I can tell the box has not been exploited -- if someone we restarting the machine via software then / would dismount correctly. Further thoughts, suggestions? TIA Steve --- Previous question in full: My machine was restarted last night and my hosting company claims they did not touch the server or have any problems. This has been going of for a few months now -- intermittent restarts that no one claims responsibility for. This is a new machine with the latest OS (4.7) so I can't blame a faulty power supply or something like -- I have more fans than Britney in the server, for HD and CPU so I don't think it's a temp problem.
