Also can't connect (ssh, ping, nfs) to the box when this happens. So far I haven't found any log messages even hinting at the problem. This system is a ~x86 and after 3 years of running a gentoo workstation, I'm at a loss on how to trouble shoot it. Thank you, Roy -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
