Update, first of all, it turned up that it happends only on 2.6, for 
some reason (now tested on 2.6.6-rc3, still the same). I really have no 
idea what kernel has to do with that, guess it is crappy java that 
causes problems.
One of IBM folks also told me to do following, and sent them resoult 
(had no time to do this yet):


"...This is the standard message you get when the server encounters a 
very bad
failure - such as SIGBUS or SIGSEGV. What you need to do is run the command
/opt/lotus/bin/nsd > nsd.log 2>&1 ; edit the file and go to the stack for
"fatal_error" or "anic" and then look at the stack. You can submit the 
stack .. to see what the failure is...."


Reason why I am answering my own problem here, is to make it up to date, 
in case someone else will have simmilar issue. It happend many times 
that someone was askning me about progress on issue I submited to lists 
year before or so.

I am also quite supprised there are no ppl here using , or having 
problems with Lotus Domino server.
