Subject: RES: [Bugme-new] [Bug 11249] New: TC HTB hanging problem

Hello Andrew!

Just to add, 2 weeks ago one of my clients had to reboot the server 3 times
during the day, so I disabled the qos and it worked fine for 3 days. After
this days I started the qos again and 10 hours later the server hanged
again, so it's disabled until now without hanging.
Another info is that I got other server that was hanging randomly and put
the users using a router but kept the server on, in the internet and with
qos running and it doesn't hang in the last 10 days. So I guess it's not the
qos only, but something with qos and usage by users. I have other client
with same kernel, same rules running for more than 2 month and with more
than 4 times the internet usage than the others and it never hanged, so it's
not only high usage.
I really don't know what is happening.

Thanks a lot any advice,
Leandro
