Hi all, My server is connected to a UPS but whenever there is a power failure or spike it seems that once all the clients come back up they cannot connect. I have to restart the server each time. This is no hardship but I was just wondering if anybody had the same problem and if so and they fixed it, how? Thanks Tom Ansley
I think we'll need more info. Is this the scenario? The ups powers down the machine, and when it starts up, the problem comes in, and you do a reboot and it comes right. If this is so, it sounds strange. What is the difference between the two procedures? Why does the system shutdown when there's spike? It should just filter it. Maybe I'm not reading your letter properly. Do all the right modules load? Type lsmod before and after the powerfailure. Does the eth0 load? Type route -n before and after. I've had a similar problem on our route, except reboot doesn't fix it. It doesn't load the Ethernet module, I run linuxconf and on exit it picks up the problem and fixes it. I should reconfigure the kernel, but due to laziness..... I also have a problem with the samba box not loading the new modules for the tape drive, same solution necessary. Now that I read this, it doesn't sound like your prob at all. Send more info.

Is your server on DHCP? Is it possible it's trying to come up before the DHCP server is ready?
