For me it dies on any kind of traffic, not just rsync. I even saw this fetching ISOs using FTP. The machine just died (network-wise; I don't have console on this machine in the data centre, but I do have a machine of this type here in the office, so I could build a test setup with KVM).

What brand of NIC Card do you have and is the BIOS version different or the same? I'm just wondering since you guys are having problems, because I have been considering on buying an Atom based machine.
I can't tell you the exact BIOS version I've running, but I presume they're the same on both hosts (the one freaking out and the other running rock solid); the NIC is
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02)
Board is Intel D945GLF2, CPU is Intel Atom CPU 330@1.60GHz stepping 02

Timo, Just to be clear, the specs cited above are for the machine that works or the one with the problem?
Both. I've got two totally identical machines running with the specs mentioned above, one of them runs rock solid w/o the ``noapic'' tweak as kernel boot argument, the other one crashes without. With ``noapic'' enabled, it also runs rock solid. OS on both is CentOS 5.4 x86_64 with all updates applied.
tnx
