<br>I am going to run a test tonight - ping every 10 seconds and time stamp the output into a file. Perhaps I will see gaps or unusually long response times and I can correlate that with the log files.<br><br>Mark<br><br>

Nope - everything just stops - ping waits for a response, web services just wait for the server, file transfers stop and wait.......as if time just stopped for the server, then starts again without any errors being evident. <br>

<p>Can you do access any other services hosted by the server during this time? Or even an extended ping?</p>

I have a headless server running Linux version 2.6.32-5-686 (Debian 2.6.32-45) (<a href="mailto:dannf@debian.org" target="_blank">dannf@debian.org</a>) (gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4) and no X or window manager, and I have noticed in the past couple of days that when I ssh in the server it occasionally stops responding for a minute or two, then comes back as if nothing had happened. It is a random event - maybe once an hour. I cannot find anything in the logs - no error messages.  There is nothing wrong with the machine where I initiated the ssh 
session, and it is not connected to ssh. The server completely stops 
responding, then comes back as if nothing had happened. <br><br>How would I go about diagnosing this problem?<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Mark<br>
