This is the second cisco - the one that locks up after a few minutes.

eth0  Ethernet HWaddr 00:05:5E:A0:01:A2
      Link: active  Speed: 10 Duplex: Half
      IP address 10.0.0.1 Mask 255.255.255.0
      MTU 1500 Metric 0
      RX packets 227 errors 0
      TX packets 252 errors 0
      IP Port Enabled


cbos#show syslog
SYSLOG Configuration
Is not enabled
Currently sends syslog information to 10.0.0.2
Currently uses port 514

I also took the case apart to allow for more air.

Thanks for your help on this.
