hi folk,
have a weird problem with my mdk9.0 box :
the system :
a 350 MHZ AMD
256 MB-RAM
IDE-harddrives (3)
network:
Hersteller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

Modell: RTL-8139

Kern Modul: rtl8139

Bus-Typ: PCI
-----------------
Hersteller: 3Com Corporation

Modell: 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone]

Kern Modul: 3c59x

Bus-Typ: PCI
-----------------
the RTL-8139 is connected to a DSL-Modem from Alcatel
the 3c59x is connected to the internat network.

the DSL can only be driven with the pptp-modul, because my provider has only 
this protocol-possibility.

now - everytime, I call the connection, the system crashes after a few hours.

what I have done to get a control for this behavior is :
have disabled as much as possibilties of services like:
firewall, ipchains, iptable, ssh i.e.
and I have made a remote login from another linuxbox - but during the crash I 
lost the connection to the mdk-box. so I could do only a hard-reset.

so only this protocol was activ. another test was - running the box with NOT 
calling the pptp-modul for a few days, and the system was running stable of 
about a week or so. no crash.

is it possible, that this modul "pptp" has a bug, or do I have some 
dependencies, which are a possible source for errors. if so, how can a make a 
circle about this - how can I do more test, to get rid of that ?

is anyone there, who have some experiences with such a behavior ?

thanks a lot for helping me
bye
