Ok every couple of days my server seems to lock up, you can still do anything and it all seems to work (ie web front end, serving web pages ect..) but it appears that the root partition gets mounted (well when you reboot the server you get an error saying that \ could not be dismounted). But the worst thing is that the mail stops working, I sent one test email to and from one of my accounts on the server and nothing happened for around 10 mins until I rebooted the server. Which log files should I post to help find the problem.
Do you get any messages in your logs, especially mail log? If not, it might be that your system partition is mounted read only due to a failure during boot.
I will check over the weekend and investigate and post anything I dont understand in this post... thanks
Ok my server is doing it again, what log files should I be looking in. This is my mail log file can anyone see any problems. This is the entire contents of the log file which I find a little odd I thought it would be bigger than this. server1:/var/log # vi mail Feb 6 23:59:02 server1 postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system Feb 6 23:59:02 server1 postfix/master[12399]: daemon started -- version 2.2.5, configuration /etc/postfix Feb 7 00:02:50 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: warning: connect to private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 00:02:51 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: warning: connect to private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 00:02:51 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: warning: problem talking to server private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 00:02:51 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: warning: no entropy for TLS key generation: disabling TLS support Feb 7 00:02:51 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: connect from smtp104.mail.mud.yahoo.com[209.191.85.214] Feb 7 00:02:51 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: AABFE34026C: client=smtp104.mail.mud.yahoo.com[209.191.85.214] Feb 7 00:02:52 server1 postfix/cleanup[12665]: AABFE34026C: message-id=<[email protected]> Feb 7 00:02:52 server1 postfix/qmgr[12411]: AABFE34026C: from=<[email protected]>, size=2986, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Feb 7 00:02:52 server1 postfix/local[12666]: AABFE34026C: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=1, status=sent (delivered to mailbox) Feb 7 00:02:52 server1 postfix/qmgr[12411]: AABFE34026C: removed Feb 7 00:02:52 server1 postfix/smtpd[12659]: disconnect from smtp104.mail.mud.yahoo.com[209.191.85.214] Feb 7 00:06:12 server1 postfix/anvil[12661]: statistics: max connection rate 1/60s for (smtp:209.191.85.214) at Feb 7 00:02:51 Feb 7 00:06:12 server1 postfix/anvil[12661]: statistics: max connection count 1 for (smtp:209.191.85.214) at Feb 7 00:02:51 Feb 7 00:06:12 server1 postfix/anvil[12661]: statistics: max cache size 1 at Feb 7 00:02:51 Feb 7 04:29:42 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: warning: connect to private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 04:29:43 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: warning: connect to private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 04:29:43 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: warning: problem talking to server private/tlsmgr: No such file or directory Feb 7 04:29:43 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: warning: no entropy for TLS key generation: disabling TLS support Feb 7 04:29:43 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: connect from unknown[58.143.253.146] Feb 7 04:29:45 server1 postfix/smtpd[16767]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[58.143.253.146]: 550 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table;

So at the moment the server is in the same state (not working properly) all the web sites ect and the portal are working fine, but mail will be delayed. I can fix this with a reboot but I will try not to and give some of you guys a chance to advise me on what to look for. Thanks
Ok Looking at the Control Panel I get this: Server Online since: 1d, 21:10h Users Online: 1 user System Load 1 Minute: 3.00 System Load 5 Minutes: 3.00 System Load 15 Minutes: 2.98 Which looks a bit high compared to what it is usually. Also is there a command to look at what the hard drives are doing... like ps-aux works to lsit the processes. Thanks
With a lot of help from martinfst we think the problem was caused by a line in the master.cf file that was commented out. (suse default install error) Thanks to martinfst, falco and till for your help on this one hopefully there wont be any more problems. Thanks
