I'm having an interesting problem with a 486DX2/66 running 2.2.5. I have a 3Com 3C509B NIC in the box, and during ftp sessions > 15 meg from the box over ethernet, the interface quits responding. No ping in or out, no nothing. The box becomes totally unreachable. A netstat reveals an ftp connection in FIN_WAIT1, but I have no idea if that is a result or a symptom. an 'ifconfig ep0 up' restores connectivity for a short time, but it inevitably dies again. Any ideas? Bad NIC? (Likely, I need to check.) Obscure issue with 2.2.5 and 3C509B's? (Unlikely, methinks.) Thanks.
