I'm seeing the same thing with src-cur.3700, ~10 Jan. Doing `make depend' for the kernel I get the ^@^@+crap towards the end of .depend, and it's completely repeatable. Guess I'll see what tcpdump has to say unless someone can suggest something more effective. The server is otherwise unloaded, so I guess load isn't a factor. FWIW, the client is a rather faster machine than the server and the link is 10Mb. -- Bob Bishop +44 118 977 4017 rb@gid.co.uk fax +44 118 989 4254 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
