I run a bunch of Slackware Linux boxes of varying versions. As best as I can tell, at or around 00:00 UTC all of my Slackware 12.0 boxes crashed with a kernel panic. I don't think it is ntpd because it is the same version as on 12.1 boxes (4.2.4p0) that did not crash. It may be the kernel: 2.6.21.5 Anyone else experience similar or was this coincidental and I have other issues...
I had one (out of many, including about a half dozen identically configured) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 systems hang at the leap second. There have been some messages on the NTP list referencing posts on a Debian list about leap second crashes, and there's a post on /. about a similar problem with Fedora 8. -- Chris Adams <cmadams () hiwaay net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
