The problem seems to be with the linux networking code. >How-To-Repeat: Install the vmware2 port from /usr/ports/emulators/vmware2 and install a guest OS. Make sure the kernel of FreeBSD has been updated to 4.4-STABLE, the most current release. (i.e. use cvsup) >Fix: Not known yet. The following patches are reported to work: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=2544092+2549364+/usr/local/www/db/text/2001/freebsd-questions/20011118.freebsd-questions This is just a quick fix, obviously not a final solution. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
