Clint, the last time this happened, I watched the system attempt to reboot when issued from command line via console. It appears the reboot sequence hangs on attempting to halt mysqld. As far as I can tell, I belive something in conjuction with Cacti and MySQL is causing this problem. It seems to happen when Cacti is still waiting for a response from a busy client it is monitoring and then the poller fires up another check while the one prior is still waiting. Once enough of these get backed up, it does something to cause mysqld to go rogue and that's when my problems start. I might also add that I have spine running with Cacti which was not a default package for 8.04. Thus, I pulled down spine from the 8.10 respositories as well as all the necessary dependencies. I fear this might be the root cause. Either way, I am planning on replacing this system all together with a new one, at which time it will run 10.04. So in short, I believe something I did might be causing this. Once I port my configs over to the new system, I shall see if the problem follows.
