Hi,

I've been having major problems with a new Dual PII server built
about 2 weeks ago.

We loaded 3.1R with an SMP kernel, and get reboots about out of kvm
and sometimes just reboot without a panic message or dump.

We tried all sorts of things, even a patch that I found mentioned
about increasing the kernel mem size, reducing MAXUSERS, NMBCLUSTERS etc.
No luck.

We eventually gave up on 3.1R and found a 3.0R dist on an ftp sever,
loaded it up with same SMP params, and so far its been up almost 2 days.
More than twice aslong as the uptimes with 3.1R

So it seems somethings changed from 3.0 to 3.1 thats causes us this
drama.  Running the same setup with 3.1R NON-SMP kernel, lasted just over
24 hours.

The machine runs squid and mail, so gets a bit of traffic.

Anyone else gone to 3.1R SMP and seen hassles?

Cheers

Bry
