Hello, I am having a problem with packets on my system disappearing. I am using the new version of User Processs PPP and FreeBSD 2.2.2. I run a web server on a dial up link using Apache and ml.org's dyndns service. I do not have a dedicated IP address. Occasionally, when I have high traffic on my web server, packets disappear for no reason. Actually, my system won't send packets, but will receive them. I receive SYN requests from hosts and they are visable with netstat -n, but my system doesn't actually connect with them, nor will it perform a DNS lookup. All Internet traffic stops. My site will stop loading for people who have already established connections, and all telnet activity will stop. I am also unable to make internal connections (ie. telnet 127.0.0.1) so I must kill PPP and restart it. I am using the options ppp -alias -ddial. What can I do to fix this? Thank you, Chris
