Yesterday I lost contact to it from another machine at my local network. I was logged in as usual on it with ssh and it just stopped responding on its IP-adress. I tested from other machines at my network, no respone. I connected a monitor to the machine and the console looked fine. (I had no keyboard to connect). The machine is using the 'rl' (RealTek 8139) network driver. This problem has happened before. I am using NAT on the machine. >How-To-Repeat: Just let it be on and the problem will come, after about say 2 weeks. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: From: Kris Kennaway To: Henrik Holmstam Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: misc/29413: Lost local network contact with 4.3-R machine.

If you want anyone to help you on this one, you'll need to do a lot more detective work yourself because there's a limit to how much we can guess from over here with no details.
