RE: [cobalt-users] more ram

["Dan" <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got a few of those messages today. By the time I get the message and
telnet in and run top, there's hardly anything running. FTP also quit on me
today and had to be restarted, or stopped and restarted via the GUI.
"The FTP server appears to be down.  Within the Cobalt server Control Panel,
try turning the service off and then on again to see if this corrects the
problem.  If not, try rebooting the server itself.  If this still does not
correct the problem, contact Cobalt Technical Support at www.cobaltnet.com."

I plan on rebooting the server tonight to see if that clears it up.

Except for a brief spell on my previous RAQ with only 16MB RAM, I never got
those messages. A reboot cleared that up there.
