I also have another machine that is running the same kernel but is not running flawlessly (however it is running a known-buggy kernel module which has caused the same problem in previous kernels as are occuring in the latest one). I am running a Desktop test machine (a SE play machine on the LAN at work) which has 23 days of uptime on light load with the same kernel. Also I have some live production servers running the same LSM patch but with the OpenWall option selected. They are mail servers with 250,000 accounts per server for a total of 1M accounts across four servers. Apart from some disk-IO performance issues they are running perfectly. > It was also sometime last year that my Thinkpad totally died (after > random crashes), and needed a new motherboard, I am keeping my fingers > crossed that it isn't the same problem. Maybe that's the issue. Why don't you put that kernel on snoopy? The only thing that stopped me putting all the latest kernels on ivanova was being on a different continent to it... -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
