The version with the problem is 2.6.22.18. The machine is fairly new
(HP DL360 G5), it only ever ran the .22 kernel. It was running this kernel
just fine for 112 days prior to the first incident on 2008-06-03, and since
then, the crash happened a total of 17 times. Our big rsync runs happen
twice a day, so it's a pretty bad record.

I can't verify that the crash was caused by the same thing every time
because I don't have console logs, but the symptoms are always the same - a
few minutes into the rsync run, it goes down, logging nothing in syslog.

I'll be rebooting into 2.6.25.6 shortly, and then I'll have information
relevant to that in about a day or two.
