Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings, Recently I changed the ethernet cards in our gateway from 2 D-Link 538TX's to 2 3Com 3C90X's don't remember which one, the 100BaseTX full duplex ones (509b maybe?). Anyway, when we had the D-Link cards in the machine, all was good - no problems. Yesterday I added the 2 3Com cards and now it will just reboot - with no notice - spontainiosly. Its not a huge issue, but it causes intermittant 2 minute network failures, which is just really teally annoying. There are no system logs to show the reboot, and it doesn't even stop to dismount the drives, which is worrisome. Anyone have any ideas on why this might be occuring? or how I can find out? Ive tried fstat (as we had another FreeBSD server crash from a crond prog that left open files everywhere) and it doesn't seem to show any problems.
