I'm having this same problem with FreeBSD-current. "ping" seems OK; it's just when I try to open a TCP connection that the machine reboots. No panic message or anything; just a reboot. And the problems don't start until I configure a SLIP interface; once a SLIP interface is configured, even "telnet localhost" reboots the machine (though it might be that the DNS query to look up "localhost" is what's killing it.....). I tried going back to a previous kernel, but I had done a complete "make world" at the top of the source tree, and something changed in /sbin/route, and I can't add any routes (interface routes and/or default route), so I can't get out to the network at all with the older kernel. If there's a patch, can someone point me to what particular module I need to pick up - I obviously can't use sup to update my sources now.... --Pat.
