Re: let me just throw this out there..
I've since turned it off for about a day and a half and left it with it the case open, it appears to be running correctly now. I'm also running tail -f's on several logs to see waddup. Cheers!

let me just throw this out there..
Has it ever happened to anyone here where your computer (in this case, my gateway running ipfw+natd) just restarts out of nowhere. It isnt even a crash, it just restarted. Then when the computer came back up nothing was running, dhcpd, natd, cupsd everything was just not running.

Re: let me just throw this out there..
sounds like either powersurgery or you hit the wrong button to me... also, are you the only one with root or power access to it? maybe some coworker stepped over the cable, or some other one thought he could work with a bsd, and just did the shutdown -r now... in case you might wanna check all the logs, also the ones including informations on who connected to that box. Also, its only a thought, but how much space is left on that system, do a df -h and have a closer look...

Re: let me just throw this out there..
Yeah I'm the only root there, the only user with wheel access isnt even used often for that same reason. I checked the logs and oddly enough, it was all just like reboot, nothing interesting or anything, I checked all the ssh logs and everything looks okay. The weird thing is the deamons not starting, thats just odd. As a matter of fact, the first thing I checked was df -h to see if may be /var or / was full, but no, everything was good. Again.. weird.

Re: let me just throw this out there..
ok, now open some tail -f 's and stay logged in monitoring them continuously, also let a packet capture program like tcpdum run, from that box, and from some other box on your network as well, to see if anything unusual comes through... also check if that reboot happens again, and if so, if it happens at exactly the same time again... And then set all daemons, that didnt startup with the machine to debug mode logging, also look if they have existing startup files (...sh in rc.d, maybe enabled through rc.conf...) just general error searching routines...
