Hello,

I am having a problem with a new server running FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE.

Once every two days or so, it reboots itself.. there is no exact time of the day it reboots..

It rebooted itself at 4:25 PM EDT on 9/25, and 3:05 AM EDT on 9/29 (today).

I thought it's the bad memory or some sort, so I've been running memtest today and memtest reports no sign of trouble with the memory...

uname output:
FreeBSD host 4.9-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE #0: Sat Sep 20 05:42:04 EDT 2003     root@host:/usr/src/sys/compile/Cod  i386

dmesg and other logging do not show any signs of panic or trouble. last log just says "reboot" at each time the box rebooted itself...

Any recommendations as to how I can steer out of from this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
-hc
