    Hello everybody,

    I have a big problem with one of my servers running Debian 5 and ISPConfig 2. After starting up the server, it seems to be running fine for about 1 or 2 hours, then it starts throwing these error messages and sooner or later, it just dies and it not reachable anymore!

    [23124.457085] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.792696] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.792696] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.792696] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.792696] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.793439] Neighbour table overflow.
    [23154.793879] Neighbour table overflow.

    Does anybody know what this error means and how to fix it? I'd really appreciate your help.

    Thanks,

    Eddie

    In which logfile do you get these errors?

    I tried finding this error in a log file, but I can't. It just appears when I am logged in through a remote console to the system and the messages pop up with a number in front that keeps growing untli the server quits responding and is not reachable anymore. I think this happens when it's overloaded and there is no more RAM available.

    Could be the ARP Kernel cache, afaik it outputs these messages when its to small.
