Have you tried a newer kernel? I had my machine crash several times when I
was using 2.0.30, with this error message. (I upgraded to the 2.1 kernels,
and the problem went away, it might be fixed in 2.0.33 too.)

I have a client (an ISP in Maine) that keeps getting a skput error,
even on a 2.0.33 kernel. This machien is running a web server (Roxen)
and squid. I wonder if it is a max files problem..

I doubt it, my webserver is lightly loaded, and that particular machine had
no squid. I don't have anything else on here that would tend to use lots of
filehandles.

The problem seemed to happen only when the computer was mostly idle - the
majority of crashes were overnight, the rest would happen when I paused in  
my typing for a few minutes. Very weird.

You could try downgrading to 2.0.29, I never experienced the problem with
that kernel.

debian ftp crashes redhat

1998-01-10 Thread Berni Ernst

Hi,

I have a strange problem which may have to do with ftp services.

A RedHat Linux box (2.0.30) acts as a gateway to the internet.
I has a built-in ISDN card (avm fritzcard) and is connected to
a virtual ethernet with Linux, BSD, SCO and Minix machines.
Via ip forwarding the rest of the ethernet can do ftp, http etc.

That of course basicly works. But:

my main workstation is a pentium with debian linux 1.3.1 (2.0.30).
When I do ftp to the internet via the gatway (redhat) the redhat
machines crashes totally. The last message is:

kernel panic: skpush: under: 001a4bf0:2 in swapper task - not syncing.

Now only a hard reset brings the redhat box back to live.
This happens not every time I use ftp via debian but very often.
And definetly it only happns from the debian box. Using FreeBSD,
SCO OpenServer, SCO Unixware or even Minix is OK over weeks and
months.

Any idea what can be the reason for my problem ?

Btw: network adaptors are WD8013 (redhat) and 3com509 (debian).

thx

berni
