>Description:
We are using a FreeBSD box to run socks5 server. This machine has one
3Com Etherlink III (3c5x9) card.
When someone using socks-enabled client in a client machine tries to
FTP something, the server's net adapter hangs. The main symptom is:
# ping 192.168.0.1
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
^C
# netstat -m
246 mbufs in use:
109 mbufs allocated to data
128 mbufs allocated to packet headers
8 mbufs allocated to protocol control blocks
1 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses
74/266 mbuf clusters in use
562 Kbytes allocated to network (31% in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines
It seems that the only way to recover this problem is re-booting the
machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
FTP'ing something with a FTP client under sockscap (win95). It does not
happen every time, but most of the times.
