Hello,=20

I'm sorry to disturb the ML silence ;) but I am gettin' some odd panics w=
ith a=20
machine since I upgraded to 1.66. They may be totally unrelated, but it h=
as=20
been two in two days! First crash was due to dnscache, then, last night I=
=20
disabled and replace it with bind. Today morning, it crashed again. So, i=
t's=20
either hardware, pf or god playing with me :>

I must say that the machine has been routing ~1megbyte/sec for 24h+. Can =
this=20
be too much of a stress ? :>

btw, Fbsd 5.1, pf 1.66, no altq.

Here are some pf errors while booting the machine with pf enabled on boot=
.

Oct  2 10:34:09 deq kernel: pflog: $Name: VERSION_1_66 $

Oct  2 10:34:34 deq kernel: pflog0: promiscuous mode disabled

Oct  2 10:34:34 deq pflogd[481]: Exiting due to signal
Oct  2 10:34:34 deq pflogd[481]: 0 packets received, 0 dropped

The box was going up from a bad crash, so it was probably fsckin', but sh=
ould=20
that be a problem?

I'm now back to ipfilter for the time being...  (using pf or ipfilter as =
a=20
module, but not both at the same time)

thoughts?
