Good Morning,

the latest 2.0.36pre kernels have been dieing on me on one machine with the
above error message.

It is only this machine, works fine on all others. I am trying to track down
why. We already swapped the hardware once.

It is running mysql (threads?), spong (a network monitoring tool heavily
modified by us - opens lots of outgoing connections to check services etc),
NeMaC (gathers network accounting data via SNMP from lots of hosts). Otherwise
it is Red Hat 5.1.

Standard kernel - syncookies etc, just what you need on a server.

Hardwarewise it is a PII 128MB, ethernet card is a
tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98 becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov
eth0: Digital DS21140 Tulip at 0x6800, 00 40 05 36 0f a7, IRQ 9.

SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7880U (rev 0).

Any idea what might be going on?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Lars Marowsky-Brée
