so, with this fix, do you think i can consider the box stable enough for
production?
ie. was the code obviously broken to cause the problem i was seeing, or is
it possible that there are other issues (heat, bad memory, etc) that could
be causing it?
i'm really getting pushed to get the server running, and, well i'm nervous to
put it in if it is going to continue to spontaneously reboot.
and, since the server has a "Powered by FreeBSD" sticker on it, stability
would be a good thing for these corporate types to see. 8^)
i'm looking for opinion here, i won't hold you to it.
(in fact, i'm really, really pleased that you guys jumped on this so quickly)
