Hello Josh,

Of course, I've should mention it in previous letter.
Yes, I know that FreeBSD has a very low default MAXUSERS value (32, in
4.1.1.) So (3 months ago) I increased it to 256 ;). But it was not a
reason
Firstly I deduced that problems happen because of I've rebuilt kernel (1st of
November). But when I built a "almost-generic" kernel (it means
GENERIC config-file with 2 CPUs support and ipfw enabled), subject
remains...

Some backround:
We use IBM NetFinity 3500 (without RAID-controller), 2xPIII 700, 512
Mb, 20GB SCSI (of which 1028MB is swap), Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet

OS: FreeBSD 4.1.1 ;)

Installed services: Apache-1.3.20 with php-4.0.6, MySQL-3.23.45,
BIND-9.1.3, Postfix, Qpopper-4.0, latest thttpd.

2 days ago I put into crontab a shell script that appends top+netstat
shot to text file, so it's possible to see server status by the last
minute before crash. But I saw nothing. Really nothing! Maybe, server
can't fork any more, or something like that??

Maybe it would be more informative to post to you any config files?

Thank you for help, John.
Best regards,
Samius
