You know...I had the exact same problem....all of a sudden one day the network interface went down. I would do the ifconfig down and up thing and it would work fine for about 1-3 days. Thought it might have been my NIC and brought in some spares from home, but before I could get them in the BIND advisory came out and I cvsuped to the lastest source. Been up 16 days straight since (knock on wood). Joe Guetler "G.
