    Hi

    When I was using RedHat 7.2 I was having crashes once or twice a day. The
    majority of them were after a NetRom disconnect. I have now reverted to Red
    Hat 6.2 with Kernel 2.2.24 and my node (GB7WDX) has been up for 112 days.

    Hi!
    I am (still) struggling with crashes.

    I now suspect, even more, netrom has to do with the crashes, latest hint
    is this:
     From /var/messages I can se one user logging in to dxspider who
    probably has come over so many 1200 bit/s nodes that it cannot pass the
    traffic fast enough, but a (netrom transport) queue is built up.
    After 1,5 hour of connection, the node is crashing.

    - Maybe due to filled up queue (not liekely)?
    - Maybe due to a disconnect from the remote end with a large queue?

    Below is the tail -f of the log file as seen over 1200 bit/s, including
    the disconnect after the crash:

    [sm7gvf@pc2 sm7gvf]$

    kernel 2.4.22-pre10
    HR6.1

    Guessing here (the system is down):
    libax25-devel-0.0.7
    libax25-0.0.7
    ax25-tools-0.0.6
    ax25-apps-0.0.4

    running dxnet, fbb, dxspider, node0.3.0

    I am using the script below as startup, I don't have all the other files
    at hand here.

    Could it be netrom causing this?

    What more information could I supply?
