There is nothing in syslog logs... Is the console responsive? Try compiling with DDB and hitting Ctrl-Alt-Esc when it locks up to drop to DDB. See the Handbook for the sorts of things to run while you're there (see the section on kenrel debugging). The network will stop if you run out of mbufs. If you're running with default tuning options, you're probably hitting a resource limit. Check netstat -m, sysctl vm.vm_stats, etc. for any overages. You ight have to run these in a loop while you're running the load test to see what the trending is before it hangs. > Bad hardware is not an option. You haven't been using PC hardware long enough if you're already discounting this as an option :) -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
