> Whenever using SSH from an external network going to the FreeBSD box it locks up the server (dropping the interface?). After around 5-10 mins the server comes back up. Cannot remote access the machine through SSH although I can on my local network. Tried using putty and securecrt with the same results.

Hello Terry,
Are you using a DNS Server? If not it can take a little time before the request is being processed.
This is a FAQ item and can be found here:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/book.html#CONNECTION-DELAY
I will close the PR since this is not a problem report but a user request. If you need more
information please proceed to http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions
and post your questions there. If people believe this is still worth a PR after that, please
get back to me so that we can reopen the ticket and look into this accordingly.
Please do note that this is not to make your life more difficult, but to make it easier
you will most likely get a much quicker response on the mailinglist then here where we
only handle problems, not questions.
Cheers,
remko
