Description of problem:
Hello,

since months I am trying to debug a problem on my RedHat 7.3 machine using 
nss_ldap.
The following post and some other bugreports finally brought me to the 
conclusion that nss_ldap could be the cause:
http://www.netsys.com/nssldap/2002/09/msg00014.html

I have exactly the same problem the user describes.
After some uptime and under some load the system locks up totally.
All ports and interfaces remain open, pings are possible but no kind of login 
or connect is possible.
I don't run nscd which seems to caused some bugs lately.

Nearly the same issue was addressed some times at redhat's and padl's bugzilla 
but this problems are all marked as solved and shouldn't occur in nss_ldap-189-
4.

I allready exchanged my hardware. I have 2 similar set up machines running in 
a cluster. The error occurs on both.

Maybe an issue:
I had no crashes for some weeks as I had removed the LDAP maps in my postfix 
setup. Now these lookups are active and since then the problem seems to occur 
again. Bevore the only app which looked up ldap was pam.

Please help

Thanks in advance

I was able to reproduce the crash doing rsyncs over the 1000mbit nic.
I have got oops now and I have posted it to the kernel list also.
I tried the rawhide kernel 2.4.20 and the problem is the same.

Scenario:
2.4.20-2.25smp from RawHide

Doing a rsync from the crashing host _to_ another host over a 1000 Mbit 3com
(TG3).
The rsynced files include bigger files with about 1.5 gigs.
Heartbeat runs.

Below are the OOPS.

Comment 2 Daniel Khan 2003-01-27 06:14:10 UTC
I now got rid of the failures by exchanging the tg3 driver with the latest 
bcm5700 driver from 3com.
It seems as there is a bug in tg3 with the BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet card.
