It sounds like your SLIP or PPP line can't handle them (you're provider's terminal server is broken). From /etc/netstart: # # XXX This is known to cause an error if /usr is nfs mounted since it # will not be avaliable until after the network is up :-(. Once the # relocation of sysctl to /sbin is done that problem will go away. # if [ -n "$tcp_extensions" -a "x$tcp_extensions" = "xNO" ] ; then sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=0 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1644=0 fi -- Justin T.
