What do you mean by "crash"?


Crash = the computer is frozen, nothing happens. The only way to bring it back to life is to power off/on.
 

I knew U'll ask me some logs but ... :)

  Actually, I have no logs because log files are written on encrypted file system and the file system
  is encrypted at boot time; each time with at new unknown random key ; so I have NO file, NO LOG, Nothing,
  as in a black hole !:P

  I don't have change anything because it's a production server.
  I need to take time to reproduce the crash on a test machine.

... but I'm interested about the list feedback about same experience.


  The system is CentOS 5.5.
