However, its hard to say in my case as the box I would only periodically see the issue. Jan, have you had a chance to try 7.2.2 ? You seemed to hit the issue the most frequently. There are also some alternate patches in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=150516 But I think Jack said 7.2.2 takes a similar strategy ? ---Mike On 2/24/2011 3:03 AM, Özkan KIRIK wrote: > Thank you.
