I use that g5 as a distcc server. I'm now seeing this: distcc[13554] (dcc_writex) ERROR: failed to write: Connection reset by peer distcc[13554] (dcc_writex) ERROR: failed to write: Broken pipe distcc[13554] Warning: failed to distribute net/atm/clip.mod.c to g5/32, running locally instead about once per allmodconfig build. The client kernel is 2.6.24.3-34.fc8 and has never changed. Thing is, these messages are unusual. I suspect that Something Is Up with that g5, perhaps its networking. There are no signs of problems in the g5's dmesg.
