[-- Attachment #1 --]
    I am trying to get a FreeBSD box configured such that I can use both it and my primary win2k computer simultaneously. It seems to be "nearly working".  After booting the FreeBSD computer, everything works great for about 20 minutes and then suddenly the FreeBSD box becomes unreachable... I can't ping it from win2k, and if I ping from FreeBSD to win2k, win2k gets a packet, sends a packet etc... except that FreeBSD still reports 100% packet loss.

    I am using mx0 as my network interface... I've recompiled the kernel, so I don't think it's a driver conflict... I'm stimied as to why it only works for twenty minutes, then stops working...
