Hi all,

=09In the BSD/OS there is a kernel countdown counter that can be used
to reboot the machine in case of lock. It=B4s called deadmantimer.
=09I used to put a cron entry to preset this counter every 3 min, so
if it goes to zero the server is rebooted.
=09In the past it save me some times.

=09Is there anything like this in Freebsd?
