Hi Alexander, What does the 'OACTIVE' mean? I put that crontab entry in and about 5 times already it came up with OACTIVE in the ifconfig output and it downed the interface and brought it back up. So far the machine has stayed up and hasn't locked up solid yet. Is downing the interface and bringing it back up when it's 'OACTIVE' help prevent the box from locking up? Regards, Tom
