If it's a FreeBSD box rebooting, you are probably running out of mbufs for some reason (probably bad tuning for the load you are putting on it, but also possibly a bug). If it's a bug, everyone would be complaining about it, so it's probably not a bug, it's probably tuning, if it's the FreeBSD box. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
