Hello!

I'm running FreeBSD-2.2.2-stable on P-133, with EtherExpress card (fxp0 interface). Sometimes (about 3-4 times per week) I'm getting troubles with IP. 127.0.0.1 pings ok, and my fxp0's address as well, but no other computer can see me, and I can't see any others.

Putting fxp0 in promiscous mode heals the trouble in several seconds, but shutdown (without reboot) doesn't help. Routing tables remains unchanged. It happened at both day and night, the only program that could receive something thry TCP/IP was sendmail. 

make world and kernel recompilatin didn't help.

Any other suggestions?

Alex.
