The problem you were describing sounds like a stuck transmitter caused by a hardware or software bug. Increasing the number of mbuf clusters isn't going to fix that problem. Is there any chance that you could upgrade the machine to FreeBSD 3.2? It would also help if you could swap out the ethernet card for either an 'ed' (SMC/Novell) or 'fxp' (Intel Pro 100B/100+). -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
