Ipf problem

Hello list, I'm having a problem setting up ipf on a FreeBSD server and can't figure out where I'm going wrong. I copied my ipf.rules file from another server I have where ipf is working great. But after I customized the rules to this server it is filling /var/log/messages with lines like the foll

Kernel problems on 5.3

Hello list, Out of 3 new dell servers, one is having some instability problems in the form of 2 kernel panics in less than a month. The problem server, in this case, is also the server that averages a load of 4.0 - 9.0, while the other two loaf around at 0.2. The servers are running FreeBSD 5.3-R

"Clean" FreeBSD Installations

Ok, hopefully I'm not throwing out flamebait or opening a can of worms here. But I'll ask anyway. Knoppix is based on Debian and comes with a script to install it to the hard drive. Nevertheless, Knoppix is not considered to be a "clean" Debian installation, as you can have problems migrating over

Running out of memory

I've got a server that keeps running out of memory and crashing. It has 1GB of swap and 1GB of ram. I originally made the swap the same size as the ram, as my previous experience with *nix machines was that when swap is double the size of ram, the computer is almost totally unuseable for at least 3
