Thank you for this info.

I first suspected Pax, since the crashes seemed to have started with the 
introduction of the changed (e.g. new kernel-config-options) patch-files 
by the Pax-Team in first months of this year. But the kernel as a source 
of instability would also be a good explanation for the severity of 
crashes. I think I will then also wait for the 2.4.27 kernel and hope, 
that this will get the server more stable.

With best regards.
