The other machine is also a FreeBSD box with a dc interface (but different card); the ifconfig's differ only in the IP address and MAC address. So, the problem isn't a duplex mismatch. Damn. :) I really didn't think it was anyway -- I can lock up the problem machine with bulk data transfers. So I really do think it's a driver problem. I suppose I ought to build a debugging kernel and see what I can break.... Do you think it might be worthwhile swapping the cards to see if the problem moves with the card or stays with the machine? This would be a bit of a pain for me to do, though. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
