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. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
