I encountered the following problem on this system: Linux zeus 2.2.10 #5 Sun Jul 4 20:32:31 EDT 1999 i686 unknown Kernel modules 2.1.121 Gnu C 2.7.2.3 Binutils 2.9.1 Linux C Library 2.0.7 Dynamic linker ldd: version 1.9.9 Linux C++ Library 2.8.0 Procps . Mount 2.9s Net-tools 1.52 Kbd 0.94 Sh-utils 1.16 Modules Loaded ip_masq_vdolive ip_masq_raudio ip_masq_quake ip_masq_irc ip_masq_ftp ip_masq_cuseeme dummy tulip
its a P-II 333 with 128M of ram.
When compiled with Policy Routing Off and Socket Filter Off
I could one of the machine's interfaces (it acts as a router) and after the strobe finished (either Ctrl-C aborted or finish normally) the device would shut down.
completely dead. no interaction.
I got a no route to host on a traceroute from the machine outside (via the dead nic)
once policy routing was on and socket filters on then the strobe stopped.
I have no greater explantion.
The only weird things on this machine are: 1. ip masq'd subnet - I discounted this b/c I disabled the masqing and the problem still occured 2. I'm using ipac for ip accounting. I also disabled this and the problem remained. 3. This machine has 10 NICS (TULIP)
I'm doing tests on some non-production machines to see if I can repeat the incident.
I hope I'm reporting this to the right places.
Thanks
