Do you have Server Monitor up, running, and sending alerts for this machine? That could help a lot in this. I suspect a hardware problem of some kind. I assume that you have reboot on power failure and crash enabled in Energy Saver. Also, are your drives journaled? Could save you a lot of trouble...

Subject: Server shuts down
Hello,
I have a G4 running X Server 10.2.8. It's pretty vanilla, just serving up files (no mail, web, printers, etc.).
It's also running Retrospect Workgroup 5.0.238 (whatever the last version of that generation was), but no UPS software. And the APE hack Labels, which is going away.
Anyway, it periodically restarts itself, and a couple weeks ago it shut itself down and didn't restart. I think I remember reading about this, but I don't recall where -- either it's the G4 (Heat? There's and extra pair of drives in there) or X Server or Retrospect (bug in that version?).
Here's a sample from the AppleFileServiceError.log:
!!Log File Created On: 10/7/2003 17:48:4 279:2:1 GMT
09/Jun/2004:09:36:05 -0600: Server shut down.
30/Jun/2004:10:36:34 -0600: AppleTalk Listener closed because of ATalk error
21/Jul/2004:10:19:35 -0600: Server shut down.
13/Aug/2004:13:40:12 -0600: Server shut down.
21/Oct/2004:13:03:56 -0600: Server shut down.
Thanks in advance for any clues.
Jeff
