Since you mentioned it, It causes my OSX laptop to panic when it initiates a packet... If a packet comes from my laptop first, it works fine.. so, I can ssh from my laptop to a FreeBSD box, and it works fine, and ping from my laptop, but if I were to ping from the FreeBSD box to the MacOSX laptop, the laptop will die.. -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
