[Gllug] server sleeping

[Casper Gasper]

I've got a strange problem with a server at a remote office, which
seems to be going down sometime after midnight every sunday without
fail.  I can see if I try to connect to it, I get a SYN,ACK packet
back but that's about it.  When I get to it on Monday, I can't even
log on to the console and have to hold down the power button.  There's
absolutely nothing in the logs past about midnight, and no errors at
all listed.

  It seems as if the hard drive is going to sleep, although there is a
mailq pickup which activates every 15 minutes and gets logged, so I'm
not sure exactly how it manages this.  Anecdotal evidence suggests the
one Saturday somebody logged into the box, it didn't go down.  Can't
see anything in crontab that might run on a Sunday  at this time.

Any suggestions?  The box is running SME Server 7.0

thanks,

Casper.
