We tried that, 2 different PS's and no change, so I don't think that is what it is.
I'm thinking its either a BIOS issue, or _maybe_ memory. There may be 1 bad cell somewhere in RAM that gets randomly hit and causes a reset. I'm going to try upgrading the BIOS, and then if that doesn't work, put in new ram from a different manufacturer. I've heard of MB/RAM combo problems before. The ram we have in there isn't cheap, but is by no means 'top shelf'. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tuc at T-B-O-H.NET Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 8:29 PM To: Marwan Sultan Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Server rebooting itself > > > I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get: > > > > > > mbmon -d > > > InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs "setuid > > > root"!! > > > > > > The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root.

One of my requirements was it had to be put on the net for me to check remotely. SOMEHOW I got the idea to compile perl to put the machine through its paces. (Don't remember how/why/etc). Once machine I was doing it on and all of a sudden the compile fails. WEIRD. So I try a few more times.. Dies in the same place every time. <SHRUG>. The integrator swaps this, that, the other things, to the point only 2 things weren't swapped. Case and power supply. Swaps the power supply, thing builds fine. Next machine, it starts failing again. I asked if he used the power supply from last time and he told me "YES". I offered to BUY the power supply and throw it in the garbage. SO, long story short (TOO LATE), WEIRD WEIRD STUFF can happen with a seemingly good power supply.
