I'm currently using the following string: kexex --type=elf-x86_64 --args-linux -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-12.el5 --initrid=/boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.el6.img --append="`cat /proc/cmdline`" kexec -e Some times we can get to the box from any subnet, other times we can only get to the box from the same subnet only. Our solution to this is to down the iface and then restart networking. Has anyone else run into this issue? -- Richard Genthner Systems Administration Symplicity ph. 703-351-0200 x8051
