Uwe,
I would say that There are probably alot of things which could cause this.
If the machine is located nearby and not co-located, you might want to turn
off any screen savers and put the Task Manager up in the screen with the
Processes tab showing. Next time the server freezes, walk over to the
machine and see what programs are using the most memory, and the most CPU
%. You will probably want to turn on VM size under "View/Select Columns" to
get the whole memory picture. Even though your server freezes, as long as
the screen does not blank out you should be able to see what was happening
on the server right when it froze.
While you are waiting for it to freeze, you might want to just watch the
Task Manager to look for odd behavior. Just be careful not to jump to
conclusions. Certain things you think are odd at first may in fact be
expected behavior.
Make sure you have the latest ODBC drivers, MDAC, whatever for all of the
database platforms in use on the server. One of the most common things that
can bog down and crash a CF server is an outta date ODBC driver, many of
which have memory leaks.
Also, you might want to look in the NT Event Viewer and see if any system
errors have been occurring. I usually don't get much good info outta there,
but it couldn't hurt.
Hopefully something I said will point you in the right direction....
