Subject: Re: [2.6.20] system sometimes stops responding
Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2007 13:49:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070427114930.GA1021@vanheusden.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070423155800.GA20799@vanheusden.com>

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:
