I am in the processing of trying to gather more info, esp. against 2.2.0-pre2, but with 2.2.0-pre1 my Linux box swamped our local network with traffic.
I run Token-Ring, with the Olicom TR driver. I also use IPX. My ncpfs tools are a 2.2.0.7
Once I attempt an 'slist' with this kernel, the Linux box keeps sending NCP packets to my nearest file server. I sent > 80K packets in 5 seconds. Since I have so many variables (ncpfs, Linux 2.2.0-pre1, token-ring, and oltr) I am trying to narrow down my search in finding the bug. But if anyone that has a slightly similar set up would try the same thing (run 'slist' and sniff your network to watch packets), I'd appreciate it. Is this a token-ring problem? an oltr problem? an ipx/ncpfs problem? I don't know yet.
