Hi,

maybe i have similar problems. 
The machine died once a day. After i have disabled SSL, all runs
stable. But i am not sure yet, because my apache2 config has not
the relevant "SSLMutex" and "SSLSessionCache".
And i have changed RAM.

Tomorrow i will enable SSL and see what happens. Next step is put
in the possible corrupt RAM. But i have some hints, that Apache2/SSL
is the matter.

bye,
Andy
