Server Crash

[Chris Stone]

Had a similar problem this morning for the first time on a new server that
has been running for a couple weeks now without issue. Console screen clean,
syslog shows nothing. But checking the log entry timestamps at 00:41 this
morning it all died. Could ping the server but that's it. Telneting to port
25 did make a connection, but no banner from sendmail.

NO!  Nothing on console/syslog :(

Ho Hard Drive activity either.   NICs are still going wild.  Not able to
communicate with the server period.

Could you clarify what you mean by 'crashes'.  Completely unresponsive?
anything on the console?  syslog?
