Date: 22 Jul 1995 20:05:31 GMT Organization: University of California, Santa Barbara Lines: 23 Message-ID: <3urlmb$7co@ucsbuxb.ucsb.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: beauty.mcl.ucsb.edu Every couple of days, I'll be working on my machine, have probably 2 telnet sessions active (plus the console), an suddenly, the machine just dies. Strangely enough, I can log onto a different virtual terminal as root and shut the system down. If I log on as any other user, I get the Berkeley line, but once it goes to run fortune, nothing. What am I doing wrong? Also, usually when it reboots after one of these fiascals(sp?), it hangs right after the add net default part and I have to hit ^C, then it will hang after the sendmail. I have to usually reboot three times before it actually gets back to working. Is this a known bug? My system is a Zeos pentium 90 w/ 1.08 Seagate Ide drive and 3com 3c509 ethernet card. Once it gets up it works beautifully. Also, I should mention that I am running httpd (NCSA's) that I compiled using the netbsd configuration. It onky got warnings when it compiled, but works perfectly. THANX for any help on this matter. Loren P.S. 2.0.5-R isn't very stable.. is it?
