During an FTP transfer, I receive exactly 27560 bytes of data @ my normal bandwith rate (that is 150kbps approx) after which I start getting the following messages: /kernel: invalid state: 0x1 /kernel: invalid state: 0x0 and at the same time, my connection speed drops to a poor 5kbps ! Apparently there are more 0x1 messages than 0x0. I double-checked my ipfw rules and I don't have any IP rule with keep-state: only TCP (following an archived posting on the FreeBSD site, IP rules w/ keep-state can cause this). It seems that I am not the only one who have this kind of pb (found two other messages on FreeBSD site but no solution). I went thru the FAQs but I didn't get any single hint. Thanks in advance for any help you might provide me w/. -- Saad KADHI -- Security Consultant --------------------------------- "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
