Morning...

	Its 4:10am, and my server just locked up again, so I'm heading 
out to the office to reboot it, again...

	A thought came to mind, so I figured I'd send it out before I 
took off, lest I forget to post it.

	If I recall correctly, in the past, if the system locked up with 
a SCSI bus hang, the system remainded pingable, and even a telnet to the 
machine would give me part of the login header, but not the login: prompt.

	With current rash of hangs...this is not the case, the system is 
locked up completely.  I don't know if this makes any sense, or if the 
'pingability' of the previuos SCSI hangs was purely a fluke, but I 
figured it might be something of note.

	Oh well...time to run out before the city *literally* rolls up 
the streets at 6am (city wide, one day, strike today *sigh*)
