The server itself lives in london i only have remote access via terminal. When i say the server crashes i mean the web sites don't reply, i can't log in via ssh and i can't ping the server from the remote address. I'm pretty sure the system is down because there are no more entries in the log past the time of crash until the hosts have restarted the server.
Server A is not configured as a DNS server i guess the DNS server is with VI (my hosting company)? I'm not really clued up on this subject. So not sure. I'm just going on what the logs say.
I will have a look at the link you posted thanks for your time.

I followed the link you posted and followed the instructions
Inside the directory /Library/Logs/CrashReporter there is only one file, it is called httpd.crash.log I looked in this and the last entry at the bottom is dated for the 6th of march, 7 days before the server started crashing. So I am assuming this isn't the problem?
Also if apache did crash i would of thought i would still be able to get in via ssh or at least still ping the server. Any ideas?

I'm starting to wonder if this is a hardware fault since the software isn't logging/reporting anything and the crashes have only just started. Everything has been working fine in the months gone by. I'm all out of ideas
