Almost every morning, I come into the server room and find that my BackupPC
server has been rebooted. I log it in and leave it logged in every day. When
I get back in the morning, the login screen is there.

Does anyone have any explanations as to why? We are running on Fedora Core
9. We are not running the latest kernel because when I last tried a kernel
upgrade, our external hard drive no longer worked after the upgrade.

Hi,

You could try noip.com services, open a couple of rsync ports on your router
and configure BackupPC to use them.
