This looks like "Let's sabotage Linux by plugging the Linux machines into the
dodgy PS and pretending they all crash while NT machines on the same PSs
keep going". Please attach said person to the faulty PS (I think we want a bit
of on/off here) and report his crash rate ...
Anyway, good detective work, in spotting the synchrony. We're all glad to have
been of some help in resolving this threat to world peace.
Best wishes,
Ted.
