Date: 21 Dec 1994 23:55:36 GMT Organization: Groupe DMR Inc., Montreal, Qc, Canada Lines: 34 Message-ID: <3daf9o$aev@guillotine.mtl.dmr.ca> NNTP-Posting-Host: slip144.mtl.dmr.ca We were finaly able to reproduce our system crash. Our system is a 386 with FreeBsd 2.0. It serves as an Internet gateway. The main link with our provider is with a 28,000bps modem. We aded a couple a serial cards and we provide 4x14000bps links in, for our users with slip. They mostly use Netscape for news and some surfing. Ever since we upgraded to 2.0 we have been having random system crashes, so we though, that did not give us any clues as to what was causing them. we averaged 1 crash a day for the past 3 weeks. At first we tought it could be PPP, but we finally figured out that the system crashes whene a users using one of the 4 14,000bps modem abruptly ends his/her session. I was able to reproduce it, with a slip link with trumpet 2.0, with a telnet session and a netscape session active, by resetting my machine. A friend of mine also crashed it wint a slip session with Linux. Anyone have any Ideas... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Jean-Pierre Lamarche | |___| | | DMR Quebec inc. | __(X)_(_)_(X)__ | | | O ' O | | lamarcjp@dmr.ca | \_/ | | 514-252-4333 (288) | \#/ | | | o | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Toutes ces opinions sont les miennes | All opinions are my own | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
