Here are the symptoms: - the system totally hangs when the vsftpd server (started thru xinetd) is called from the outside (32 bits suse9.2 boxes); reset is the only solution... - Nothing in /var/log/messages and no crash dump anywhere on disk - I've removed vsftpd and installed pure-ftpd instead -> This time, ftp transfers are ok (no more freeze) - Started nfs server on the box and created a share; when I try to mount the nfs share from a remote 32 bits box (asus A7n8x with marvell gigabit chip), the 64 bits system is again totally frozen !
Except that, the system is running like a race car (no network problem when I initiate network from the box - internet browsing is perfect)!
Any suggestion, experience, clue, tip, etc... is welcome, 'cause I'm stuck !
Sounds like a problem with sendfile() in the network card (that is used by vsftpd and samba, but not proftpd) I would plug in a different network card and see if that works stable. -Andi
