This machine is starting to head south again. I've updated user.log (a
bunch of stats I'm syslogging) at
http://depot.mtholyoke.edu:8080/tmp/. I've also added
http://depot.mtholyoke.edu:8080/tmp/mist/10/, which contains the latest
smokeping graphs.

In about an hour or two, I'll likely have to head in to get this thing
back on its feet. I will try the suggestions above, to see if that will
do the trick. Is there anything else I should try to do or look at? Once
I reboot (if that's what I have to do), I expect it will be a couple of
days before this happens again.
