Hello I am experiencing some spookynes with FreeBSD 4.8 on the IBM x345 2U machine; the x345 comes with two on-board INTEL 100/1000 mb nics which uses the em driver. However, whenever I "up" one of the nics, there is a slight delay of a few seconds before the command completes, also the nic is not operating in up state yet, appr. 30 seconds passes before traffic actually can pass in/out .. It happens regardless if there is a cable attached to the nic. I find this rather spooky. Has anyone using the em driver experienced this? Other than being spooky it causes a problem with the box in question, since syslogd and other daemons times out at boot-up. Please include my email in any replies. Thanks Christoffer <cp@cvt.dk>
