Ok before you guys say upgrade, here's the scoop.

2.2.5-Stable running as a news server with full feed on a T1 line.
After 80 days, the interface (ep0) went down, ifconfig ep0 down; ifconfig
ep0 up broght the system back to life.
Again at 112 days, same thing.

I rebooted it just incase.

Here's netstat -s output, notice the strange negative numbers.  Could the
counters wrapping cause the interface to go offline?
