Topic: afp_alarm: child timed out

[ssn]

hi,
i got a huge problem using the newest smeserver. after a few days of using it as a fileserver / router, it crashes randomly, meaning no clients can connect anymore and the afp shares go down (not reachable) and i cannot connect via ssh. i am able to shut down the server locally, but the problem appears again after a few hours.
this is the error message:

Apr 30 15:23:10 ats afpd[11755]: afp_alarm: child timed out

using the smb shares is not an option (im not sure the problem is afp related), and since im not sure if its a bug i wanted to ask here first if anyone could help here.
