I have a set up where my FreeBSD 4.4 box is acting as a firewall and gateway 
between a cable modem on xl1 and my home net on xl0.

I have a pretty tight rules list and don't have that many procs running 
(ipfw, natd, mysql, tomcat - that's it!)

It seems that after approx 10 hours the connection REALLY slows down, most 
connection attempts on other ports (e.g. 110) time out and I have to reboot 
the box. After the reboot everything is back to normal.

If you have *any* thoughts at all as to what this could be - please let me 
know, I'm getting pretty desperate.

many thanks in advance!
