Make sure none of your interfaces are realtek chipsets.  Not many people 
have had any luck getting them to run without crashes and its a fairly 
popular chip for discount network cards.

Also you'll probably NOT want to use a beta 1.2 version if its that critical 
that it be up.  I use Beta 1.2b3 and its been perfect, but on my production 
systems its always 1.1 and without any issues.

Subject: [m0n0wall] Died after 4 days


I am running m0n0wall 1.2b9 with all of my traffic flowing through
bridged interfaces and traffic shaping applied.  It was working well for
about 2.5 days.  I looked at the screen (console) this morning and it
said something about 'uptime: 2 days 11 hours' followed by the word
'panic' and then a whole bunch of random characters.  Then a little
while later, my Internet went down.  Rebooting the box brought it back
up.



I do not think the two events are related (panic error and crashing) but
I'm wondering if anyone has an explanation to either problem.
Unfortunately, I don't have syslog enabled so I don't have logs of what
happened.



If the M0n0wall crashes again, I'm going to have to pull it out because
I can't afford the downtime at my business.  However, I need the Traffic
Shaping!  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
