Not reachable via network or serial console. After reboot and examination of logs it seems that the box hung at 3am when running the daily cron jobs. The security check finished OK (the results were mailed out) but there seemed to be no further activity and the rest of the daily jobs did not complete. I run a couple of local periodic jobs as below: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/killall ntpd sleep 5 /usr/sbin/ntpdate ntp0.cs.mu.OZ.AU sleep 5 /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid #!/bin/sh # # $Id: 920.dump,v 1.4 2003/06/19 13:45:33 mark Exp $ # /bin/rm /backup/root9* /sbin/dump -L -9 -u -h 0 -B 640000 \ -f /backup/root9-part1 / /bin/rm /backup/usr9* /sbin/dump -L -9 -u -h 0 -B 640000 \ -f /backup/usr9-part1,/backup/usr9-part2 /usr /bin/rm /backup/var9* /sbin/dump -L -9 -u -h 0 -B 640000 \ -f /backup/var9-part1 /var /bin/rm /backup/home9* /sbin/dump -L -9 -u -h 0 -B 640000 \ -f /backup/home9-part1,/backup/home9-part2 /home The dumps were not started so it seems to be ntpdate related. I should mention that this is the first time since I upgraded the box from 4.8-RELEASE a week ago that it has hung. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
