I think 60C is already very hot for regular parts, and that it is proper that the machine would shutdown . Unless you have a special military kind of hardware, I am sure that more than 60C will reduce the MTBF of your hardware, and maybe void your warranty if you have one. It would be interesting to know if that setting can be changed to a _lower_ value, in fact. --=20 # Bruno Gallant - scion@bsdnode.net - bsdnode@gmail.com
