Hello, I recently updated a FreeBSD system that has been running fine on 6.2 to 7.0. I rebuilt world & kernel, installed world & kernel, mergemastered, then rebooted. Now both network cards (em0, an Intel Pro/1000 v6.7.3, and rl0, an SMC eznet-10/100) are giving continual watchdog timeouts. Ifconfig shows them as active, with appropriate settings. There are no IRQ conflicts that I can see. Pinging loopback and the ip address of each card succeeds, but we can't ping anything outside of the system. We've tried disabling ipf; we've taken out each card in turn, trying it with only one card; we've tried building the generic kernel, just in case we accidentally took out something necessary; we've taken rc.conf down to just defining the gateway and addresses for the network interfaces; at this point I don't know what to try next. I can restore from backup to cvsup and get any current changes, then rebuild, but I hate going through all of that without any reason to believe anything will change. Any ideas for further troubleshooting would be very welcome! Renee -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
