Question:

I currently have my FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE machine setup with two ethernet
cards in it. The first ethernet card is a 100-Base-T card which is
configured for a fake network of 10.0.0.x. The Second ethernet card is
a 10-Base-T card which is setup for the real network of 209.90.xxx.xxx.
I have natd running under type 'open' which seems to work Ok. It was
running great for about 1 hour and then i tried to send a file across
the 100-Base-T connection to the server and it locked up my FreeBSD
machine totally. Ever since then I have nothing but troubles with the
FreeBSD machine. I can't quite figure out what the problem is. On
bootup this is what it looks like:

Feb 20 21:08:37 stardust /kernel: real memory  = 75497472 (73728K bytes)
Feb 20 21:08:37 stardust /kernel: avail memory = 69853184 (68216K bytes)

Feb 20 21:08:37 stardust /kernel: IP packet filtering initialized, divert

I seem to have some major video problems once it locks up and i compeltely
turn the computer off and then back on.. I sometimes have to take the card
out and put it back in before i can get a display to come up. I'm not
sure if this is related some how?

Is there people using FreeBSD 3.1 on 100 Base T and able to transfer files
across at 100 Base T speeds without any problems? What may be causing my
computer to completely lock up?

Any with any ideas i would really appreciate it.

Brian.
