Quigon... the evil router.

[Dan Brosemer <odin@cleannorth.org>]

Yet another failure this morning.  If I was right about the network cards
being the sole problem, the thing would have continued to operate as a DHCP
server, but not route between networks (the internal interface is a much
more reliable NIC).  It didn't.

A while ago, we tried a new CPU fan and thermal grease to no effect.

It failed sometime between 4am and 10am.

None of my logs indicate anything was failing on it up until that time.

Alive at 4am means it ran through its nightly maintenance without issue, so
it's not that that killed it.

I highly doubt software failure, but I'll try putting OpenBSD 2.9 on it.
(Currently it runs 2.8).

We also have a couple more NICs lying around that are better than the junky
ones currently in there.  I'll put those in while I have it down.  And I'll
probably underclock it at the same time depending on how low the board can
go.

Any more hardware-type people out there want to have a look at it?  Jim?
Jay?  I'm quickly exhausting all my ideas.
