Re: [2.6.20] system sometimes stops responding

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Today the problem occured again after 4 days of uptime.
System not responding to ssh, login on the console and also bind did not seem to respond to anything at all.

I don't know if it is of any help, but here's the alt+sysreg+m output:

Nothing in the logging (I debug *.* to /var/log/all) and logging just stopped at a certain point with the last message being:
