Oh, it's the system alright. I've got two computers here, one a Win98SE
box, and one my ML 8.1 box. I do have a ssh daemon running on the Linux
box, and when this thing has hung up like this, my ssh client on the
Windows box won't connect to the Linux box.

I will give that a try the next time the system hangs. If it reports
anything in the logs, I'll post it here.
