I'm quite sure this here is a i586 ;-) Same symptoms, seem to be more likely when other heavy traffic is going (downloading mail via fetchmail from a machine just after the modems via CSLIP). All RH 6.0 updates in place, 2.3.6 kernel compiled with a egcs snapshot, also newer kernels. -- Horst von Brand vonbrand@sleipnir.valparaiso.cl Casilla 9G, Viña del Mar, Chile +56 32 672616
