Note that, each day it happened, it's always the same IP address (65.59.233.102) that's in the error message. That error appears up to 5 times per second. D> D> Actually, this server has only 1 NIC (bge0). It has an IP on that internet and also a vlan interface (vlan0 [pvid 2]) that's used for PPPoE between mpd and the pppoe clients. I'm not sure that this message is directly related to connectivity problems. Have you tried common debugging sequence when internet connectivity breaks: tcpdumping, looking at ARP table, route table, etc? -- Totus tuus, Glebius.
