It servers NIS, NFS, NTP, CUPS, HTTP, MySQL, ... The clients are mostly Linux (Mandrake 9.0 and 9.1). Every once in a while, the NFS server just seems to freeze. The machine is running, I can ping and ssh in and it still serves NIS and all other functions. But NFS is just plain dead. Killing mountd and restarting it doesn't help. If I do ls /net/{machinename} it says: "Resource temporary unavailable". At that point, I have two solutions, either reboot the machine, or drop to single-user mode first, and multi-user then. I can't find anything in the logs, nor can I find a link between some action and the crash. I happens during heavy loads, it happens on light loads. There's only one thing in the logs I can't explain, but I can't find the relation: -- Apr 22 13:39:51 nemesis kernel: stray irq 7 Apr 22 13:40:16 nemesis last message repeated 4 times Apr 22 13:40:16 nemesis kernel: got 5 stray irq 7's: not logging anymore -- Is anyone experiencing this? Any thoughts? Kind regards Guy
