Okay, I've upgraded our IRC server to 2.1.0-951026-SNAP the day it
came out, but left the 20 gigs of user filesystems NFS-mounted on it
and allowed both user and anonymous FTP logins (as well as its regular
IRC duty). It lasted almost three days before it froze up solid.
Again, no kernel panic messages or syslog messages.
I moved our FTP services back to a BSD/OS machine and mounted only
a 2-gigabyte filesystem for staff logins on the FreeBSD box. It's
been running ircd now for over 5 days now without a hitch. I'll let
in continue on like this over the weekend. On Monday, I plan to
re-enable anonymous FTP services only and NFS-mount just the public
FTP archives and see if this incremental increase in load will cause
anything to break. Keeping my fingers crossed...
