[Asterisk-Users] reboots

[Nick Knight]

The kernel is 2.4.22
It is a gentoo box, although it had a vanilla kernel installed, CAPI was
patched into the kernel for using CAPI drivers. 

It uses Asterisk version 1 from CVS, running SIP clients for the phones
and CAPI across an eicon diva card (4bri).

it uses kapjods rtc plugin, and runs MOH. It queues calls and runs some
mailboxes.

We have 7 users in the office, there is a good chance there is 3 calls
on the go at any one time.

Let me know if you need any other information

I am going to go to kapejods 4 bri card with kernel 2.6 - but I am
unsure wether this will follow me!

Thanks

Nick

Months.  You should only have to reboot for kernel updates and
restart * when updating it or (some parts of) its configuration.

Something is definitely wrong with that box.  To diagnose
will require at least details on processor, kernel version,
distribution, asterisk version, and hardware installed.
