Hi all
I'm running 6-stable on my FreeBSD nfs server, and I've lots of lots of
trouble.
1/ Sometime the server juste hang-on without any message (console
or syslog)
2/ Sometime I've em* or bge* watchdog on the console, and when this
append the server "loose" this nic after sometime.
3/ Event nfsd running, after 1 or 2 week of uptime, the daemon
rpcbind don't answer anymore any request from client, event rpcbind
running and listen on right ports (check with sockstat) I've got
many message to tell
Connection attempt to
in my syslog (I've log_in_vain configured with sysctl).
Now the server crash 2 times in 2 days (case 1). (With the new path on em.c)
Well after this thing I want to downgrade to 5.x. Can I use this process:
I make buildworld & buildkernel on a FreeBSD 5.x server.
I make a tar.gz of /usr/obj and /usr/src
I tranfert this two tar.gz on my 6-stable server.
Untar on right place
make installkernel on /usr/src from 5.x
reboot
make installworld.
I don't really care if the 6-stable-/usr/local/bin running on my downgrade
server. Because this server running only nfsd.
Regards.
