The AOL connection in question was gaims connection back to the AIM server. Silly me. I still don't know which of the established connections was responsible for the sustained load though. My system also suddenly went offline, and couldn't seem to hold its connection afterward. After kicking the ppp daemon a couple times, I just rebooted the system. The only log I can find that might have been relevant is this one: May 23 15:38:47 keyslapper ppp[47819]: Warning: ff02:5::/32: Change route failed: errno: Network is unreachable This sounds like some kind of upstream change in network routing, but I don't know anything else about it. Could such a change have caused the network to do double time trying to get routes? Lou On 05/23/05 02:55 PM, Louis LeBlanc sat at the `puter and typed: > I have a strange question.
