My FreeBSD box usually auto-dials our ISP on detection of any traffic. But every now and then, instead of dialling it seems to run into problems. This is what I get when I try to ping a remote host on the internet :- (Pinging local hosts on our LAN works fine) # ping 194.105.166.1 PING 194.105.166.1 (194.105.166.1): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: No buffer space available ping: sendto: No buffer space available ping: sendto: No buffer space available ping: sendto: No buffer space available ^C --- 194.105.166.1 ping statistics --- 12 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss BTW. No other traffic makes it dial out either. The only way I have found to temporarily solve the problem is to reboot the computer. Any ideas ?
