Hi, I've been experiencing weird reboots leately -- not the "bad-RAM" kinda reboots, they seem to be software-related, because they seem to happen always at the same time. It usually happens right after boot, when ntpd is synchronizing. This is what appears on /var/log/messages: Apr 2 22:21:43 localhost ntpd[2300]: synchronized to LOCAL(0), stratum 10 Apr 2 22:21:43 localhost ntpd[2300]: kernel time sync enabled 0001 Apr 2 22:22:49 localhost ntpd[2300]: synchronized to 200.218.160.160, stratum 2 >>>>> here the system rebooted Apr 2 22:23:45 localhost syslogd 1.4.1: restart. Apr 2 22:23:45 localhost kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started. After it reboots, it "survives" -- and even synchronizes again: Apr 2 22:27:09 localhost ntpd[2319]: synchronized to LOCAL(0), stratum 10 Apr 2 22:27:09 localhost ntpd[2319]: kernel time sync enabled 0001 Apr 2 22:29:16 localhost ntpd[2319]: synchronized to 193.6.222.47, stratum 2 Apr 2 22:43:16 localhost ntpd[2319]: time reset -2.639872 s Apr 2 22:47:17 localhost ntpd[2319]: synchronized to LOCAL(0), stratum 10 Apr 2 22:48:22 localhost ntpd[2319]: synchronized to 193.6.222.47, stratum 2 Anyone ever seen something similar? Is it really possible that time syncs could cause reboots? Any other log file I could check for additional clues? I am using latest kernel (2.6.20-1.2933.fc6) TIA Andre -- Andre Oliveira da Costa
