My server experienced the same kind of "crash" I described in the mail this is a reply to. It crashed again about a day after I switched it on. I'm using web based mail, so please excuse me for leaving off the Reply-To header. (my mail is normally also fetched by this same server)
I replaced the rootdisk, so now I'm starting to wonder if this problem really is caused by my harddisk or that there's something else going on. Any clues? What should I look for? Could this be caused by an exploit or some kind of DoS attack? Maybe my other disk is ruined? Is it at all possible with the symptoms I described? (it contains /usr, /home and /repos)

Peter
