Are you sure that the system's memory is good? I would suggest the memtest86 program. A simple search of freshmeat should reveal it for you. Jamin W.

Hi, I am using redhat 6.1, Kernel 2.2.5-15smp, for the services like DNS, Mail, and Web, etc. I am forced to restart the system for every 7 to 10 days because of lack of memory or system is not able to handle any process. It is giving different reasons for not handling the tasks. Most frequently, it is giving "unable to allocate memory" and sometimes it is giving "Parity Error" It is not able to read the Harddisk, etc. Lack of memory, It is not allowing one to shutdown the and restart through OS, So I need to switch off and on, whenever it happens. It is very obvious that, the process which were utilized memory is not realsed completly, or partially, so it is going to peak. I am using 1 GB RAM. So I would like to eliminate rebooting the system, What are the tools available to clear the memory that in garbage. Or any suggestions in this regard....
