I want to use a FreeBSD-Server for my network at home. Now i'm using a Windows-Server but it crashes too often. I think the connection is slower if i use it in fbsd. Maybe because of the thousands of errors. Here are some informations: --------------------------- OS: FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE Connection: ISDN Flatrate 64kbit/s, Telekom Austria Modem: Elsa Tango 2000 (external, port com1) # dmesg | grep "sio" sio0 port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on acpi0 sio0: type 16550A # errors sio0: 15 more interrupt-level buffer overflows (total 15) .. sio0: xx more interrupt-level buffer overflows (total xxxxxx) # answer from a various mailinglist It means that the kernel couldn't service the serial port fast enough and it dropped characters. If it happens any time you try to send something, your interrupts may be misconfigured. # /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set timeout 180 enable dns provider: set phone "1234" set authname "5678" set authkey "foo" # set login "TIMEOUT 10 \"\" \"\" gin:--gin: \\U word: \\P col: ppp" set timeout 300 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.255 add default HISADDR ----------------------------- plz, help ... i can't find a solution by my own. mfg seppo
