I've run into too many issues (in the past; maybe some have since been dealt with) with ULE, so I stick purely with 4BSD. Now, about watchdog timeouts in general -- there's a pending issue which is still under investigation. Please see this thread: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2006-September/028792.html Yes, it's long, but it does pertain to bge (despite the subject stating em). After you read it all, or most of it, you should probably partake in the convo there. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
