thanks... got the ttyv8 off...
any idea about the temporary network loss?
not without more info...
it might be you machine or the switch it's attached to..
you may also have a clash with another machine somewhere with the same
IP address.
i forgot to mention one important thing... i can always ping the
machine from within the same network. so it seems that it's not really
the machine itself. the theory about the switch could be - except all
the other machines that are on the same network do not have that
problem. they are always pingable from the outside, even when the
machine in question is not.
and of course there is no other machine with the same ip on that
network. i did check...
thanks....

hi all..
recently i had to change the static ip on a machine here at work.
nothing wrong with that. what's happening with this new ip
(different network) is that for short periods of time sometimes the
machine is unpingable. until i try to login ssh. as soon as i do
that the ping and the rest of network activity resumes - http.
that didn't use to happen on the previous network. the only change
was the network information. also a bunch of other machines changed
at the same time and none of the others present the same situation.
the only entry in the log is:
init: can't exec getty '/usr/local/bin/xdm' for port /dev/ttyv8: No
such file or directory
delete or turn off the line in /etc/ttys for ttyv8
(if somebody would explain what this is, that would help too. since
xdm is not really in use and i can't find anything that would be
calling xdm.)
not sure if this has any importance but the card itself is
BCM5750A1 NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express according to pciconf.
the machine is 7.2 release.
where do i look?
thanks...
