Hi,

   Mr. Ian,
              Yes I know what I've said might be little dangerous but I got same kind of problem in my CentOS system and it was nothing to do with the ISPConfig or anything but it was my net drivers but after installing the proper once I didn't got that problem ever again. So that's why I gave him this solution. And the other thing if you know more or a better way just tall him don't try to correct others ok.

Regards,
Sadaruwan

Without more information on the specific issue, the advice you just gave
regarding using vendor drivers can be extraordinarily dangerous.  I
would recommend:

1. OP giving more info (like, for example, specifics on the problem, hw
config, etc...)
2. Patching CentOS

before offering any solutions that can lead one down a painful path...
as an example, many vendors defer to the network drivers offered in the
kernel and have deprecated their own.  Nvidia, for one, comes to mind...
