Hi. I'm having a very strange problem with 3 of my Linux servers. Actually I noticed this problem approximately 1 year ago when I started to use Linux servers with my Solaris boxes. I'm going to describe the problem as best I can. Sorry for my bad English.
Notice, I always use Red Hat 7.1(Seawolf) with latest kernels. I configured a server few months ago, that would serve a very little http requests and ftp server for small users and mysql. This server was inside a LAN so I configured my router to port map certain ports. This server is in use of max 5 users, and maybe 1-2users at same time. The server is a AMD K6-300Mhz with 256MB in ram. and 512 in Swap Space. Always after 3-6days the server has no more then between 3-15Mb in ram left of 256MB. It's unbelievable how this rocks between 3-6 days after reboot. Where is my RAM? Who is eating up my memory? When I do "top" it shows the processes that should be running, fine by that. And another server has this problem. And I can't believe that it should do this to that powerful machine. I have a 1200Mhz, 512MB in RAM, 7200MB IBM HD that serves as a firewall and a gateway for my company. Approximately 70 Users. Its running Kernel 2.4.10 And now this machine has been up and running for 3days and it has only 145MB of 512MB. That means that 355MB of ram is somewhere and I cant find it!. Another server. With the latest kernel 2.4.10. 256MB in ram and it has been up and running for 3hours and it only got 3MB of ram of 256MB. What f*** is going on. Please can anyone tell me. This server only serves FTP Accounts, and it has only got one user on it today. Any suggestions and help appreciated Svavar Örn Eysteinsson Kerfisstjóri / Hugbúnaðarsmiður System Administrator / Software Developer Fíton ehf. - hönnun og auglýsingar Garðastræti 37 - IS-101 Reykjavík Sími 595 3600 / fax 595 3649 www.fiton.is / [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
