Same one as last time that had the problems with the inits. That was fixed by a complete reload of the DSL router we were using. All was fine with that again...until today. Seems that for some reason I'm having trouble with sendmail again. It takes forever to initialize and it takes even longer to connect. Reloaded and bounced the router twice. No affect. Now here's what's different than last time. Only sendmail is affected. SSH, FTP, Samba are all fine. Sendmail takes forever to initialize or accept connections. Now sending mail out to another location is entirely different. Sendmail even has the same problem when sending test emails from the local machine. It's run golden for the past 7 days, so I'm not sure what's happening now. Reboots do the same thing. I'm suspect of the nic this time, but I can't guarentee it. Both use the RL driver (saw a similar issue with someone else and their nic driver) running a kingston nic. I don't have any on hand to try a new nic in there, but I'm thinking about trying to swap out the nic first, then the router to see if those work. If neither work, where do I go from there? Note, it was running fine for 7 days, then barfed early today. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
