    If this is not the correct board to post this to I apologize.
    We have a FreeBSD 4.3 server that keep rebooting.
    I am using $FreeBSD: src/etc/syslog.conf,v 1.13.2.2 2001/02/26 09:26:11

    I try and log the crash, but have had no success.
    I wrote a few ksh&perl scripts to do a ps ax every 30 seconds to see
    what is running and what is killing the server.
    I also have written a few scripts that output the server life and health
    (similar to healthd) to a webpage.
    
    There are no processes or daemons that are killing the server.
    
    Anyone know of an extended logging feature that I can use in conjunction
    with syslogd to log everything that is going on?
    
    The server runs
    DNS
    SENDMAIL
    QPOPPER
    RADIUS
    APACHE (both secure and non-secure)(http&https)
    SSH
    FTPD
    MRTG
    
    And a few custom cron jobs.
    
    Any help would be appreciated.
