Sounds like the time we found a bit pattern that would send the telco's atm/frame relay switch port to Mars for several minutes. I think it was a stream of more than X space chars. We could ping across the link with spaces as the ping payload and knock the link down anytime we wanted. It still took us a few days to convince the telco. We were just lucky we had three T1s on that link. -- Scott Lambert KC5MLE Unix SysAdmin lambert@lambertfam.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
