You'll need to get a debug kernel and produce a traceback for us to have any chance of doing anything for you. See the kernel debugging chapter of the Developers Handbook for info: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html > Furthermore, what sort of reliability can I expect from this server? > It's 10:30 pm and I'm driving to the datacenter to push the reset button > for the third time. Until we know what's wrong we can't possiably answer that question. A number of systems running 5.3 are in production and stable, but it's a new release. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
