We tried that, 2 different PS's and no change, so I don't think that is what
it is.
I'm thinking its either a BIOS issue, or _maybe_ memory. There may be 1 bad
cell somewhere in RAM that gets randomly hit and causes a reset. I'm going
to try upgrading the BIOS, and then if that doesn't work, put in new ram
from a different manufacturer. I've heard of MB/RAM combo problems before.
The ram we have in there isn't cheap, but is by no means 'top shelf'.

I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get:there
mbmon -d
InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs "setuid
root"!!
The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root. I am wondering
if
is a possible power supply issue, or something like that.
ODD STORY... We used to buy servers custom built for us. One of my
requirements was it had to be put on the net for me to check remotely.
SOMEHOW I got the idea to compile perl to put the machine through its paces.
(Don't remember how/why/etc). Once machine I was doing it on and all of a
sudden the compile fails. WEIRD. So I try a few more times.. Dies in the
same place every time. <SHRUG>. The integrator swaps this, that, the other
things, to the point only 2 things weren't swapped. Case and power supply.
Swaps the power supply, thing builds fine. Next machine, it starts failing
again. I asked if he used the power supply from last time and he told me
"YES". I offered to BUY the power supply and throw it in the garbage.
SO, long story short (TOO LATE), WEIRD WEIRD STUFF can happen with a
seemingly good power supply.
