I installed watchdogd on a few 8-core Dell PowerEdge 1950, which I
assume are similar to the 2950s. I wrote about how to do this on my
blog[1] last year.

However, something in the last couple of months has broken watchdog
and my machines causing them to regularly lock up. I'm unsure what has
changed, and I didn't have time to investigate so I just turned it off
and everything is now fine.
