Veldhouse" Subject: RE: spontaneous reboot with bridging and firewalling two dc NICs Cc: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thomas, I have the same problem, except that I have single IP and my PC reboots when it get long time idle, and I dont know how many time. Even with firewall not running. Probably when I back to work next morning it will be down again. When I was with 3.5-STABLE it was all ok. Now with 4.1.1-STABLE these reboots are forcing me to "downgrade" to 3.5-STABLE. I dont know whats the problem. Its all ok. I dunno if its natd, or some other deamon I run here. Or if it is just the fact that this machine is a gateway or something in the hardware. If you know if there is any kind of test I could do to try to discover what is wrong. Any kind of help is valuable now. =) On 30-Oct-00 Thomas T. Veldhouse wrote: > > Yesterday I emailed the list asking if it was possible to use two dc cards > for bridging.
