Also send a list of all daemons that are running on a freshly booted system and any other information you think could be relevant. If you are a commiter or a networking guru, even better. :) Please send the above data, even if you have already responded to the "Spontaneous reboots" thread on this mailing list. I'm trying to compile a list of hardware and software configurations that experience the problem and see if there is something in common between them. If we want to fix the problem, we at least need a starting point. For now it looks like it is a problem with the networking code, so please send a description of what network activity is going on when you experience the reboots. I will summarize the responses I receive. Also if you have a good idea how we could attack the problem, please speak up. For now my idea is to find a common software and hardware configuration and then try to sistematically remove components that could cause the problem. I have separetely posted this message to both freebsd-current and freebsd-stable, as it seems to affect both branches. Please DO NOT respond to the mailing list. Thank you for your attention.
