I was meaning the 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5 kernel.  I'm still going to try it even 
though it looks like those users are having a problem with it.
Actually I am running it right now on a different server.  It's still too early 
to say it fixes our problem, because it generally takes a few days for the 
problem to appear.
But our problem has been happening with every released kernel with SL 5 (and 
hense, every released kernel from RedHat.)
RedHat has some test kernels that might fix our problem, but I wanted to give 
their released kernel a try first.
