Annoying syslog error
I am getting a flood of the following log in my syslog. There is no adverse effects other than wasted CPU adding the log and annoyingly large syslog files. I would like to understand and stop this problem.
The annoying log +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- root@server:/var/log# tail syslog Apr 14 11:24:07 server kernel: eth0: (96423253) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423256) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423257) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423260) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423262) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423263) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423264) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:10 server kernel: eth0: (96423265) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:11 server kernel: eth0: (96423266) System Error occured (0) Apr 14 11:24:11 server kernel: eth0: (96423267) System Error occured (0) +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Here is my system: Dell Dimension P60 (yup a cluncker!) using SlackeWare 2.4.20 Network card is a generic card (I forget what flavour in particular).

This: "eth0" tells us that your network is to blame. Does your network card work 100%?

I think so
Rokka,
I have not done exhaustive testing on the network card, but I am willing to do some. What are some good tests I can run? Here is what works from experience: I can SSH into the computer and surf the http server that I run on it. My http access logs do so a small percentage of failed requests (4%). I do not know if these are related to this issue. Telnet works on the LAN and I do not run an FTP server. As far as I know all of these use the same basic properties of the network card. Are there other things I can check? Thanks, Phil |
