Hi guys,
My server crashes very often and it's very random. So not long ago, I was suggested that I read the FreeBSD Handbook pages about kernel debugging, and here is the result:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] DIENUB $ kgdb kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.3
[GDB will not be able to debug user-mode threads: /usr/lib/libthread_db.so: Undefined symbol "ps_pglobal_lookup"]

As far as I understand, the issue is CPU-related, but that doesn't make sense, as my network interface cards are constantly giving me watchdog timeouts.
