Re: What IP address is this log entry coming from? (Is "::" a valid IP address?)

[Apache Issues <apacheissues@xxxxxxxxx>]

That won't work.  I can't even get results from 'ps aux' to get a pid, SSH is super laggy (I can type maybe one character every 4 or 5 seconds - if I'm that lucky), and most commands never complete.

The hardware has been tested and is fine.  The problem occurs randomly - we've gone a week without incident before but we've also had days where this problem crops up 4-6 times throughout the day.  The "::" log entries are the first real clue to the cause.  And the only "solution" we've come up with is to reboot the box.

Our server just went nuts again.  And again "::" shows up in the logs right around the moment it started chugging 100% CPU.  Help!

attach to the high CPU httpd process with a debugger and get backtraces
