Date: 26 Feb 1994 16:18:48 GMT Organization: The Internet Access Company Lines: 23 Message-ID: <2knsp8$8g@sundog.tiac.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: zork.tiac.net X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi, I have been running NetBSD-current (Feb 14) for a while and I have been getting all three of my test systems to hang. It seems that the boxes just stop dead. I have two 486/66s and 386/33 doing networking services such as unix shell services, sendmail, NFS, named and more. I can't get more than 2 days outta of them before they just hang. All three are running NE2000s. Does anyone else run into these problems? Is anyone in the NetBSD core team interested in stabilizing the NetBSD os. I have made two postings before today. I think this is a kernel problem. It may be a memory leak or a device driver that is stuck in a loop. I would think the latter is more credible. Any hope, suggestions, questions or flames would be a great help.
