But the servers are dedicated servers rented from a datacenter. I'm not sure if it hangs or panic. The provider just keep rebooting when we said servers not responding. Will try to use mbmon. Is there any ports I can use to log what actually happened before it hangs or crashes? -----Original Message----- From: Roland Smith [mailto:rsmith@xs4all.nl] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 10:59 PM To: amin Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Servers Crash every few days On Wed, Aug 22, 2007 at 09:06:50PM +0800, amin wrote: > Hi, > I have six servers running FreeBSD 6.2 and all of them have the same config. > My servers are configured to run as a socks5 proxy server. > > Lately the servers are going down without any good reasons.

Do what Kris mentioned, but check for hardware issues as well; overheating, voltage drops etc. The mbmon port running from cron and logging to another machine can be helpfull here.
