I am trying to see what could cause a server to reboot if I try to zip a
big file?
It would run a whole bunch of programs fine (sendmail, dns, radius, etc),
but when i try to zip or gzip a big file (something like 400Mb) it would
reboot without writing a syslog entry :( The server has 128Mb of ram so I
was thinking is it possible that other programs just never get to the last
memory blocks and therefore do not  experience problems?  
Or is it something with the software setup?
Any input would be appreciated.
Val.
