It sounds to me like the problem resides in the ed0 (NE2000) driver. I have two cards in my machine running NATD, both of which use this driver. That probably accentuates the problem for me. My development box uses de0, and I don't see this problem ever (PII-333). Tom Veldhouse veldy@visi.com -----Original Message----- From: Blaz Zupan <blaz@gold.amis.net> To: Thomas T.
