Hi,
I have just installed the latest version of the SME server. Just server / dedicated gateway with a couple of test users.
However I se that there is constantly some harddrive activity. Random seeks are done at least each second. At first I thought it was some background filesystem checking, but now it has persisted for 36 hours. Is this normal? Beleow there is a copy of the current processes. Thanks for any hint / info.

Look at your messages log and see if you have a bunch of 'deny log' entries. You can reduce what's logged to reduce the hard drive activity.

Hi,
Thanks for the tip. Apparently the is a 'problem' with the DHCP. I have an ADSL modem with DCHP server which the SME's 'internet' NIC is connected to.
I thought that normally SME would negociate an IP and release it rarely, but this appears to happen about every second. A portion of the mesage log is copied below.
How can I disable this continous DHCP negociating?
Thanks for any hint
