The only way I could detect this is by looking at the log file and seeing the reboot. My question is there, is there a way to store or retrieve the kernel panics to help troubleshoot what the problem really is. The system is in a remote building which has both UPS (for the entire building) and a generator. I do not think the problem is power related. Any assistance in this matter would be appreciated. The system has been running for quite a while without any major problems and I have not seen this type of activity before. Duane... Use Proportional Font: true
