Jason Middleton" To: Subject: dropping off the face of the earthI have Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG i have been using freebsd for sometime now and occasionally while i am telneted in to the box it will just drop the connection to the network completely! it cannot be pinged or browsed or telneted to. When i go to the console and try to ping another machine it give a buffer error. I am nto sure exactly what the error is right now because i cannot be infront of the console right now. SO to cure this problem i have been doing an ifconfig down and then back up and it comes back up on the network....someone mentioned NMBCLUSTERS at one point but i do not know what they are... Whatever shall i do? Regards, G. Jason Middleton _______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement: The revolution will not be televised.
