I'm having some problems with a 4.2-Release NAT box.  If I leave it up
and connected to the outside world for a couple of days, it starts
crashing with a page not found type of error (I'm sorry I don't have
the full text of the error - it finishes crashing and reboots before I
can read the error from the screen).  It will continue to come up,
then crash, repeatedly, until I turn it off or disconnect it from the
outside world.  This has happened twice since I set the box up, and it
takes two to three days for the fun to begin.

I had 4.0 installed on the same machine, and I never had any problems
with it: it would stay up for months at a time, with little
intervention on my part.  The problems started when I made the
following changes to the machine:

1.  I upgraded the OS to 4.2
2.  I installed an 802.11 PCI card

The machine is currently configured with two intel FE network cards
(using the fxp device), and a Cisco AiroNet 340 802.11 card (using the
an device).

If someone has any idea as to what this might be, that would be cool
if you could tell me.  However, I don't expect that kind of luck.

I'm interested in information on how to get the kernel to drop to the
debugger when it wrecks like that, so I can fix the problem myself, or
write a more useful query to this list.
