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. -- John Brooks Email: john@day-light.com -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Drew J. Weaver Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2000 1:05 PM To: 'freebsd-isp@freebsd.org' 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 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
