Well, here I am again, after my machine drove me crazy all the weekend.
It froze Friday evening, I swapped all hw except the ISDN cards. It
froze. I recompiled kernels and all. It froze. This took me all saturday
and sunday (I'm right now not in the best moods I know...). It was
proven hw before, but it wouldn't run there.... Somebody heard of a new
attack? (The reason is, the machine ran fine for a week and always
crashes on weekends, when it's relatively quiet)

Stat: I'm not running xntpd (though I use ntpdate against a dial up
server that runs xntpd one a night), no gated.

The only thing that is suspicious on my side is the last message of the
isdn part. It was a connection to a Bianca router. At the moment, I'm
starting to blame the ISDN part (isdn people, please listen: there are
two cards for a "Anlagenanschluss", that's for channels for the same
number, and one card on a standard 2channel isdn).
