The machine is a patriot with a 400 Mhz AMD proc. 2 hard drives running RH9. One serial, one Printer port and the usual 2 usb ports with nothing connected on any of them. Sendmail and Apache also a nfs and samba share (the same folder actually). One network card to adsl switch router 4 port. Lan normally one win2k laptop one RHEL3/XP desktop and another desk top which is now win2k as it did not want to play fedora at the weekend. Only the first 2 running and the Desktop was in Linux mode. Both would have been connected to the nfs / samba share at the time of reboot. If there is an application I can use to gather more info on the system please talk me through it.
