Aha! I think we might have struck gold here.
What I have:
- Several machines humming along smoothly (apparently).
- One machine getting real low on memory every now and then (the watchdog
eventually reboots it).
All machines run 2.0.30p2+werner-fink-the-1st(with the old buffer code)
The only real difference between this machine and all the others are the
numerous (20 or so) IP-aliases it carries which are *not* in the network
attached to eth0.
It runs firewalling, ppp-logins, gated (doing OSPF multicasts), and virtual
webservers.
It does *not* run transparent proxies, traffic shapers, always-defragment.
