FreeBSD hackers,
I have a FreeBSD 4.9 server with Abit AT7 Max motherboard which
includes a built-in rl network interface. I've noticed that every now
and then the network interface drops out. I can ifconfig destroy and
then create it again and the network interface comes back. This
machine serves nfs/smb/rsync exclusively and nothing more (2-3 gigs of
traffic is moved per day). Any ideas on how to track down what the
problem is? dmesg does not show anything unusual.
Thanks,
Sumit
PS Here is what ifconfig rl shows:
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet x.x.x.74 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.255
ether 00:50:8d:a6:2a:34
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
