Sorry,
It's been a bit of a hectic couple of days!
Right,
Cat /etc/issue gives:
Red Hat Linux release 7.3 (Valhalla)
Kernel \r on an \m
The type of 'hang' is the weirdest.
When it happens, there is no httpd, no ipop3d, no sshd.
I cannot find anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/secure apart from the gaps between the last successful connection and the command
to reboot.
I can log in via SSH fine.
If I go and plug a monitor and keyboard into the server and log in via console, there's no kernel panic but the messages on the screen are:
VFS: find_free_dqentry (): Data block full but it shouldn't.
VFS: Error -5 occured while creating quota.
There have been quota errors for a while though.
I don't know if that could cause it to hang though...
As for system request keys, I'm not entirely sure what they are...
I've come from using SuSe a little bit, and being Sys Admin on Windows 2000 and 2003, I'm trying to learn Linux as much as I can, in as short a time possible!
