Just a thought, is the bios putting the hard drive into suspend mode? Or
maybe the power management "system" is turing off some hardware devices into
sleep mode and one of them happens to be the NIC card? Maybe check to see if
the connection led is green on the card when it's offline and if it turns on
after you access the NIC from the console. Check you bios settings? Anyway
it's just a guess, YMMV.

Subject: Really odd problem
We have a Freebsd 4.2 box on our network, after the box boots, it
brings up the network and everything is great, I can telnet into it..
everything good, but about 30-60 minutes later no incoming traffic is
getting to the server. If i ping the machine, or telnet to it, I get
nothing. If I go to the terminal and ping anything then it "wakes up" does
anyone have any idea what would cause it to stop "listening" to incoming
network requests? This is becoming very tiresome and i've done everything
known to me.
Thanks,
-Drew
