[...] It happens to me quite often, too. The only thing related in the non-debug messages is: Jan 8 12:02:19 moneypenny dhclient[68091]: 5 bad IP checksums seen in 5 packets Jan 8 12:02:49 moneypenny last message repeated 743054 times Jan 8 12:04:50 moneypenny last message repeated 2951866 times Jan 8 12:14:51 moneypenny last message repeated 14457921 times Jan 8 12:24:52 moneypenny last message repeated 14812032 times Jan 8 12:34:53 moneypenny last message repeated 14770327 times Jan 8 12:44:55 moneypenny last message repeated 14748300 times Jan 8 12:51:44 moneypenny last message repeated 10037074 times ... which accounts for the CPU usage, I guess. I killed the "bad IP checksums" messages, so it doesn't annoy my syslog anymore, but it of course didn't fix the underlaying issue. I was looking at those packets with tcpdump once and didn't see anything obvious/bad there. And yes, I didn't have this problem with ISC client. And I surely use different cable provider, than the original poster ;) -- Krzysztof Kowalik | () ASCII Ribbon Campaign Computer Center, AGH UST | /\ Support plain text e-mail
