I have this same problem on a 7.2 box, but it's for all network connections. I just figured it was a hardware problem (since it's an old socket 7 motherboard with a 233AMD processor), even though I replaced the nic twice. The box has just been sitting in the corner for a few months now (I don't have a spare monitor for it, and it got to be a pain in the ass disconnecting a monitor from one system to hook up to that one). I'd be interested in hearing any possible solutions for this.

I've got a rather nasty intermittent network problem on our Linux server that is degrading the services it offers.
Basically, we only allow HTTPS and SSH access to the box. After a certain amount of time, the server simply refuses to accept either type of request. Prior to this, would have been working fine.

Any connected SSH sessions are immediately terminated when the problem occurs.
The cure is to go to the console and restart the network service.

The problem is intermittent but does tend to occur most days. We are running red hat 7.3.

I'm very new to Linux with an SA background in HP-UX, are patches available for Linux that may address problems like these ?

Can anyone recommend any checks ?...there are no clues in the messages file.

Regards,
Mike.
