For the last month and a half, I've been experiencing some unusual behaviour on my RaQ4R. The symptoms are as follows:- Swatch thinks all services are up - The various logs can see localhost connections from Swatch - No external connections are accepted. - Serial connections from terminal work fine. - Uptime drops to between 1-8 days if soft-resets are necessary - Sometimes networking can be brought back up by running /etc/rc.d/init.d/networking
While your case doesn't sound like a perfect example, some RaQ3 and RaQ4 hardware has been known to 'disappear' from the network when sitting behind a Cisco 1900 or 2900 series switch. The solution is to set the system to ping out once per minute or so indefinitely to 'announce' its presence. It's worth checking into.
